Good news, both of your loggers are fine sensitivity wise with comparable max and average signal levels (in dB-Hz):
45.14/45.86
29.31/28.68
Average sats are slightly different at 6.32 vs 6.85 but nothing huge.

Thanks for sharing, makes me feel better about not having gotten a hold of an OTB backup system ;-)
I must say I'm finding the 3080 to be a great companion for my GPS testing and geotagging, really easy to plug it in and grab the nmea log.
Having it next to the new PDAPhones with GPS (HTC Touch Cruise and Eten X600) made me realize it was rather large though, but it's light and you can't beat having a large patch antenna for good performance :

| Quick question: what (free) software are you using to export the .log (=.nmea) log files to csv? I was using logconverter (referenced in this forum) but found that the csv export was missing date/time in 25% of the records. The KML export seems to work OK (once the .log files are renamed to .nme) |

I haven't had a chance to try it yet. Has anyone tried the GPS Photo Tracker software that comes with the 3080 ?
Good / Bad ?
Edit: Btw/ I found an Update for Photo Tracker. V1.3.7

Thank you for the reply to my question on the export tool. I use gpsvisalizer when I am online but I was looking for an off-line tool. I will look at gpsbabel.

| I just bought a new 3080, and my first few track logs are pretty jumpy. Is there a way to tell if I got the v1 or v2? Maybe by serial #? I'm pretty new with using a logger so maybe I'm doing something wrongly and its not the 3080 at all. |

I'm a novice myself so take this with a grain of salt. (The more GPS savy feel feel to correct me. I like to learn too.)
Compared to at track from a GPS such as a Garmin etc. the tracks won't be quite as sooth on loggers. (More jumpy.) My guess is its due to the lack of firmware. (Things such as "dead reckoning". ) So its kind of a "what it sees - is what you get."
Since accuracy is probably within about 10 meters it may be part of the jumpiness (or wobble) you see. Also, if signal is not picked up, the track will jump from the last point, to the next location it gets a signal. ( A straight line.)
If you look at the NMEA.log and find the string $GPGSV,
look at the value in the seventh place to the right. (e.g. $GPGSV,a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o. )
Look at G. This is the signal to noise ratio. Mine was in the lower 30's to mid 40's. (higher is better) This repeats four spots to the right (e.g K) and again 4 spots to the right again (O) to the end of the string.
Lastly, after searching the forum I found there is a macro by Charly Karome written for Microsoft Excel. It will give you the signal strenght from a .log. I might mention I haven't been able to get it to run but I was trying it in Open Office. (a Excel Clone) Heres the url to a translated page for the macro. http://tinyurl.com/ytwhq2
I hope this helps.
P.S. If you bought from Semsons all the ones they have in stock now are the newer ones.

Tony,
Thanks for the reply. I have a perl nmea parser and can extract signal strengths from that. Mine from last night were definitely not as high as the good ones you just reported, and the table gpspassion posted in the first post.
I am currently running a much longer log in more widely varying set of conditions, so maybe I will have a better idea.
How long has semson been 100% with the "new" version?

Hi Tony,
Yes, all the units we have in our inventory are the new updated version. All previous version were returned to Amod for exchange already.

Has anyone tested the setup tool available above? The AmodAVLTools_SW0.33_Setup.zip file seems to be password-protected despite being available in a public support section. |
