Mission One at this point is simply to get a viable outdoor GPS
reference antenna mounted and operational. I have one (a nice HP 58532) ready
to go, as well as a mount kit for it, but we've still got the remains of the
latest ice storm to contend with. I'll be lucky if I can get up to our roof in
a week...
Once I get that in place, I'll know that the antenna will not be the
issue. For ANYthing I'm doing!

Unlikely. It's a passive splitter. I'm thinking that a seasonal drop in
signal level may be to blame (I seem to have this identical trouble every
winter). Again, outdoor antenna placement should clear that up.

For the Trak? I've got an archive file with the last release of
firmware, if that's what you mean. Trak was nice enough to send such my way
after some protracted begging.
Keep the peace(es).
