Sometimes the satellites are poorly positioned for the device to pick up the required number of satellites for it to lock on. Happens around here sometimes until it eventually locks onto 4 satellites. Thats my Snooper incidentally.

I'm sitting about 4 feet from the window living room , with 1 sat found and locked on,
Moving 2 feet into the kitchen get s me 4 found and 3 locked on mind you
it is a hand held GPS unit
Interestingly.. Most receivers only need 3 Sats for a lock.
4 Sats are needed for height calculations.
And if you have WAAS capability, it increases the accuracy to about 7ft, as
opposed to 35ft
