Paul,

I also have had some WinSDR errors. It seemed that the GPS was losing =
lock when viewing the log file. But WinSDR always reported in Lock. I =
use the FTP feature to send the response to my web site and I was =
getting an FTP error Bad Make Directory. I would just restart WinSDR and =
all was OK. The last change I made was to plug Larry=E2=80=99s digitizer =
into a surge suppressor. I think only think this may have helped. =
I=E2=80=99ve not seen any errors for 5 days now. You want try it. Let us =
know if it helps.

Hi all,

I have a couple of Larry's digitizers + GPS set up, and I am having a =
problem where the GPS seems to lose the lock after a random amount of =
time.   Days, weeks, sometimes months.     When it happens, it will not =
regain the lock.

I have tried doing the GPS reset via the WinSDR menu, but that doesn't =
work.

Eventually I unplug the GPS (or the digitiser's power), and plug it back =
in again, and it starts working again until it loses the lock the next =
time.

Does anyone else suffer from this problem?

thanks,
Paul
