Hi Daniel -

| That might explain some of the things I've been seeing here, bad
| reception with the internal GPS antenna and maybe the failure of the
| antenna switch on my v4 was a result of this floating (or the tolerance
| just changed resulting in really bad reception).

In that conf call yesterday it was also mentioned that you were using
external antenna, and things went much better with that.

I tried to get an external antenna today but nobody sells them around
here, so I ordered one for tomorrow.

What was your experience when you used this?

In fact, what about your experience when you didn't use it... did you
ever find yourself unable to get any signal for some period even in a
situation where you had OK signal before?
