There is no satellite in the display even after several hours when the equip-
ment is first installed.
There are 7 satellites in the visibility range, but only a maximum of 2 appear in
the display.
There are 9 satellites in the visibility range, 6 have been traced, but the
equipment is not synchronised, since the signal/noise ration is between 10-30.
Previously the equipment has functioned perfectly. 7 satellites appear in the
visibility range but none is tracked - there has been no reception for several
days.
