Okay...they want to test the Maestro..A2135H GPS receiver in their manufacturing plant but ceiling is blocking out GPS signals. the receiver goes down to -163 dBm so I wonder if a passive antenna set up would so the trick?
I am looking into SCT rules for GPS Repeaters...9 of 10 times they mirror the FCC rules. Thoughts?
