Tips on improving satellite signal strength

Go outdoors and hold the receiver with the antenna (top of the receiver) up so the GPS receiver has a clear view of the sky.
Move away from large structures or overhanging trees that may interfere with satellite reception.
If still not receiving strong satellite reception, try moving slightly to a new location.

This receiver may not be able to get satellite signals while indoors. If you are not getting strong satellite signals, go outside and follow the tips provided above.
