Posted by peter.gordon2 Can external antenna's increase accuracy? G'day all. Been looking at external antenna's for my Nuvi 760. Before I purchase one, I was wondering if they are capable of giving my GPS increased accuracy over the standard internal antenna? I've done a search on here and nothing related has come up? Cheers |
Posted by allenpremier Can external antenna's increase accuracy? A external antenna's doesn't increase accuracy. It allow to obtain more straing of satelitte signal. |
Posted by tv external antennas Hmmm. I always thought that the more satilites seen the more accurate the readings? So if an external antenna helps with aquiring more satilites then accuracy happens by default? Sit under my carport without external antenna, I get 7 satilites and accuracy is 10 -12 mtrs. With the external antenna, 4-5 mtrs! |

Posted by johmazz2006 Re: Can external antenna's increase accuracy? External aerial definately gives better reception of satelites. Haven't had to use it yet on the 765 yet though. |
