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....
