rbharvey Posted February 7, 2009 Report Posted February 7, 2009 Anyone have any acquisition problems with 430w's? I have a dual 430 setup with GMX200. Had them loose all SATs with zero signal strengths during one flight. Re-acquired 5 minutes later, then dropped again for remainder (10min) of flight. Wrote it off as an anomally, fine for following 3 flights (11+ hours after that). Now refuse to acquire at all on the ground. I am assuming this a software issue with dual antennas so completely independent systems and they are not tied to each other in any way (ie no crossfill capability) help!!!!!!!!!!!!. GPS #2 is only tied to external OBS/GS and strikefinder. Got #2 to come up once with great signals after many power cycles, but could never get it back again....
rbharvey Posted February 13, 2009 Author Report Posted February 13, 2009 Problem solved with new software load and new GPS antenna on the #1, just an FYI to anyone who sees something like this
