GPS on Bell.ca

I'm curious what other bell users' experiences about GPS are.

having tried several ROMs I'm now using NFSFAN's 1.09 with PPST run..

Usually I have fix within a minute from cold start,
using either GPSviewer or HTC GPS Tool..

What I find curious,
that sometimes, it cannot find a GPS fix for a long time,
and to help it, I need to do a soft reset,
after which a DIFFERENT SET of satellites
comes up (different satellite number in the aforementioned programs)
even thought I'm at the same location, but different time
(satellites must be moving, then )

my question is - if anyone knows- where those satellite number are stored in the phone, and if those numbers are attributed
to the satellites permanently, or they are just shortcuts in my phone?
