You know, with the reception problems I am reading about here, I think I
will stick with my GPS 195 a while longer. I always get a lock with a
minimum of six to eight sats.
I don't have reception problems, and am puzzled as to why some users are
experiencing them. I am using the GA26 remote antenna, but this is
supposedly a "low power" antenna, so I'm not sure if that is a factor or
not (Garmin uses active antennas.) I have an unused GA56 on top of the
airplane, and that does seem to result in stronger signals, but part of
that could be the more ideal placement, with an unobstructed view of the
sky.
