Don Mimlitch, Your email is most interesting. My GPS76 receiver shows PRN#35, which was moved West from its position over the Atlantic, but no PRN#38 or #51. What are the positions of these two WAAS satellites. How are you monitoring if your 17HVS refuses acquisition?
The reason I am interested is because I was working on constructing a codeless receiver for WAAS until PRN#35 was moved to a position where it is blocked from view at my location (Yorktown, VA).

I've been Monitoring WAAS Satellite NMEA ID #38 (ANIK) for the last month. It has been broadcasting a signal on the last two Weekends but my Garmin 17HVS refuses to use it. Tonight 2006/05/03 I noticed that another satelight NMEA #51 was sending a signal and my GARMIN was reporting Differential Mode. More investigation of the NMEA Messages showed it had the same Coordinates as #38. I appears that #38 is currently Operational as #51. Has anyone heard anything about this? I know it was supposed to be activated in the Fall of 2006 and I was getting WAAS Differential Signals from #38 for a short period in March. I just found this interesting and wonder what others know about it. Thanks Don Mimlitch [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------- How low will we go? Check out Yahoo!
