[OZAPRS] Aisin GPS

[Barry]

When they forget where they are, I have found that it
takes 15 to 30 minutes for the engine to figure it out
again. I think they need to update the satellite
almanac in order to find the satellites.
The better position you have the antenna as far as the
sky view, the quicker it seems to happen.
