Mine exhibts simialar beahviour.   I was able to reduce behaviour this by 
setting the elevation mask to 35 degrees and increasing the amu to 5.5 or so.  
I also re ran the self survey with the revised amu and elevation settings.   I 
have also noticed jumps in temperature at some times when new sattelites are 
acquired.  I'm wondering if this causes a spike in cpu activity which causes 
the cpu to heat up.  This is typically only noticeable when the temperature is 
fairly stable.  Sorry for the lack of specifics I'm on the road right now and 
sending from a pda.
