I bought and mounted the Chip scale GPS Antenna.
1.575Ghz VSWR is 1.3 with with return loss at 18.6dB.
Center frequncy as mounted is 1.58Ghz with VSWR at 1.2 and return loss is 20.16dB
Problem: several GPS devices fail to acquire initial data: no position
Solution: Connect alternate antenna for initial fix, remove and connect chip antenna for all subsequante fixes
Questions:
1) What might cause the inital failure
2) How might this be corrected
