They don't seem to be able to pick up a sattelite signal through that windshield. I have a Garmin (model 300? I think) and the Finedrive 400. Does anyone know of a brand/model that does work?
Paul, can either of your GPS receivers use external antennas? I don't really use my GPS any more, but I have an external antenna in my trunk. I just tucked it inside the liner on the trunk lid. I got fantastic signal strength from there and had a position lock in seconds every time I turned it on.
