Hmm, that would likely be related not to the software program you are using (S&T in this case), but rather to where your GPS receiver is located (does it see the sky in all directions well?), or perhaps if the GPS receiver is an older type it may not be as sensitive as some newer models.

Hello Marvin,

It does have an unobstructed view of the sky.. it is located on the front dashboard. I have tried relocating it in the rear deck but it didn't help.

thanks
