Sat nav

Post by raceman » Wed Aug 03, 2011 1:37 am

Hi all,

My sat nav has decided i am permanently somewhere between Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight, in spite of me being back in Kent for 3 weeks :thumbsdown:

Any ideas on the cause and the inexpensive fix lol LOL :boohoo:

^^ what he said.

I have a GPS antenna just behind the front grill for my repeater. Works very nicely.
