[QUOTE="DingChavez, post: 174958, member: 791"] There should'nt be any issue using the GPS terminal in the haze as GPS signals are transmitted by radio waves in the 1575.42 MHz range from the NAVSTAR satellites. There will be a usual delay from when you start your request for position. That's because you need signals from at least 3 different satellites to get your lattitude and longitude position. wait abit more to get signal from the fourth satellite to get your altitude position. For civil use (such as your NEW GPS receiver) the accuracy will be around 100 yards. For military use, the receiver would be able to read the PY code and get an accuracy of 10 yards. :) [/QUOTE]
