I have loaded the excellent latest beta on my 8410.

Looks like something has been done to the GPS routines.

The Microsoft GPS generic driver does not seem to work very well now -- always used to.

Changed to COM7 and it gets a fix OK  .. seems to work fine.

BUT

  • If I bring up "satellites" nothing is shown  .. no yellow/green circles
  • While there are 10 satellites indicated, last 2 DOPs say "none"

Anyone finding the same?

Does it matter? (just need to be sure its working properly)

Has the software changed in this area?
