4 Magellan GPS 315/GPS 320
Proper Handling - Signal Reception
Clear View of the Sky. Because the receiver attains information it needs
from satellites orbiting the earth, the antenna needs to have a relatively
unobstructed view of the sky. This allows the receiver to choose from
all satellites currently available.
If the view of the sky is poor, (large cliffs or buildings, heavy foliage or
other obstructions) the satellite signals can be blocked and the receiver
may take longer to compute a position fix.
Holding the Receiver. The receiver is designed to fit comfortably in
your hand. Hold the receiver in the palm of your hand with the antenna
pointing towards the sky.
You do not need to initialize your receiver each time you use it unless the
memory has been cleared or if it has been transported more than 300 miles
while turned off.
