Thanks Mark, 

I was fiddling around with 2D/3D when I saw that error message.

I experimented in comparing two GPSDOs, one with full sky and one with limited visibility. All settings kept identical. 

There was very slow phase difference noted within a narrow range. The exception was when there were not enough sats then I saw sudden fast changes.


>That is DOP is too high...  dilution of precision...   the sats are in a poor position for doing fixes.   You have probably put the receiver into a 2D or 3D fix mode (not overdetermined clock mode).  From the S)urvey menu,  select receiver mode 5.
