Post by: dusey on March 24, 2022, 02:16:08 PM

hello forum members! I'm from Ukraine. I have such a problem: my device helix 7 chirp g3 with a navionics card catches satellites for a long time after turning on. about 20 minutes. Also, after switching pages (views), you again have to wait for gps serifs for 20 minutes. what reasons

Hi Dusey

Welcome to the forum :)

First of all, my deepest admiration for the courage and resistance shown by the Ukrainian people in the forced war !!!!

The GPS problem could be related to GPS being operated by the US military. So it could be that you want to disrupt Russian weapon systems with the start delay.

I didn't expect a better answer. It is very nice to hear that Ukraine is supported outside its borders as well. May there be peace and tranquility in your homes. and I'll figure it out with an echo sounder somehow.

Checked with your smartphone?
Turn on GPS Glonass in settings, if not done yet.
