DGPS DATA: Shows GOOD or NG.
SIG. S = Signal Strength. A figure between 0 and 99 is shown.
The higher the figure the stronger the beacon signal.
SNR = Signal to Noise Ratio. A figure between 1 and 22 is shown.
When your boat is in the service area of a beacon station, SNR
should be 21 or 22. If the figure is below 18 the position will be
inaccurate. If this happens, check for radar interference, poor
ground and generator noise on own ship.
