9. Troubleshooting
9.1 Poor or No Satellite Signal
GPS devices rely on a clear line of sight to satellites. Signal reception can be affected by:
- Tunnels: Signal loss inside tunnels.
- Urban Canyons: Tall buildings in cities can obstruct signals.
- Dense Forest Areas: Heavy tree cover can interfere.
- Indoors: GPS signals are typically unavailable inside buildings.
- Bad Weather: Severe weather conditions (snow, rain, heavy clouds) can weaken signals.
- Under Bridges: Obstruction from overhead structures.
If you experience signal issues, move to an open area with a clear view of the sky.
