Thanks - and by the way, I did follow your instructions as well for the aGPS fix - it seems more complicated than it really is once you get into it - just takes time and attention -
Yes, I too have noticed different programs can obtain locks faster than others. I guess it's kind of in the software...not really sure. I do agree...the Valhalla locks may have been a bit faster, that I don't know why.
