Lightbulb Antenna with integrated GPS project
Anyone try to modify a magnetic mount antenna with a Delorme Earthmate
GPS device? I was wondering if the proximity to the Magnetic mount would
render it inoperable.

Does the GPS rely on a normal magnetic compass inside or does it use the satellites like normal GPS's?

GPS relies on receiving signals from satellites around 1.575 gHz. Any effects from a magnet would be not be noticeable.

I figured that you know, and the response was directed bascottie. I assume that a poster knows nothing and start from there. I do this not out of disrespect, but for efficiency.
