It only knows the the >"track" the airplane is making. Well, yeah, except there was 'no wind.' I mean none. Unless I got caught in some localized phenomenon where the wind was from the north at 20kts at 2000 feet and 0 on the ground. Since I'm running from the 'mains' I have the position refresh set at max, so it wasn't that... The only other thing I can think of is that I recently shifted the position where I keep the antenna so that it's kind of in an angle between two metal surfaces. Since GPS is a timing-based algorithm, I suppose that I could have some sort of bizarre signal reflections messing me up. Maybe I'll move the antenna back to where it was known accurate :-) Greg ==^================================================================ EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?aVxiLm.aVzvvT Or send an email To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This email was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] T O P I C A -- Register now to manage your mail! http://www.topica.com/partner/tag02/register ==^================================================================
