displays a dialog box showing the SV number, azimuth, elevation,
signal to noise ratio, and use status of all GPS satellites in view.
When WAAS satellites are visible, they are shown on Satellite
Details screen.
Note: The WAAS satellite information may or may not be shown due to
manufacturer’s specifications. If the receiver is not WAAS enabled then
no WAAS info is received. Some receivers will only track one satellite
while others may track two.
Satellite Details Screen
Sat #
Sat #, or SV number, indicates the satellite vehicle, or space
vehicle number.
Azimuth
Azimuth is the bearing measurement in degrees from North
that represents the horizontal direction of the satellite from the
current position.
Elevation
Elevation is shown in degrees and is the angular measurement
above the Azimuth line, which gives the satellite’s height above
the horizon. A satellite located lower on the horizon has a lower
elevation in degrees.
SNR
SNR is the Signal to Noise Ratio, or the ratio of signal received
to noise received. More signal, or higher number, indicates
a stronger signal strength. More noise indicates less signal
strength.
