Re: [gpsd-users] count of satellites_used is incorrect

[David J Taylor]

Hi everybody,

when I try to get the count of "satellites_used" by the following little 
program:
[]
the count of "satellites_used" decreases to one after about half an 
hour. The count of "satellites_used" in the program "gpsmon" stays 
meanwhile nearly constant at eigth to ten. The other values from the 
gpsdata structure correspond to the values on "gpsmon".

What can be the reason for decreasing "satellites_used"?

I use gpsd-3.16 with linux (buildroot), the gps-chip is "GNS1301" from 
Unitronics.

Thanks for your help!

I use a similar program on my Raspberry Pi, so in case it helps:
