sky away from building, trees and other obstructions.

itself using GPS. This may take up to five minutes. The small GPS
satellite icons on the display (shaded area in the picture below)
show how many GPS satellites are in view at any given time. You
need all three satellite icons to be on solidly to obtain a GPS fix. If
any are missing or flashing then the GPS signal is being blocked.
