ipaq 2755 and GPS |
|
|
No matter which gps program I load, (S&T, Delorme, GPS viewer the
program will update for 15 seconds and then stop updating.
I have tried 3 different GPS receivers with the same result.
Have tried it from a hard reset with same results
ipaq is a 2755 with ROM V1.09
Suggestions? |

Hard to say, I have a Global sat 338 that I use with a 2755. My only
problem is that I can not believe the altitude response as it shows me
living at -49 feet and trust me the waves I hear out my window tell me that
I am at approx 10 feet above mean sea level.

no trouble with it. |

GPS Altitude is calculated by measuring the disatance of the user from the
center of the GPS orbit. The true altitude is based upon a mathematical
model of the earth and thus can be very innacurate with an error of up to
+/- 75ft.
