Portable PowerFLARM real-time clock? by [email protected]
I have a Portable PowerFLARM, and it creates IGC flight log files with the right dates (from the GPS data), but files that it writes to the SD card are all dated 1/1/2010. Has an internal battery for the real-time date died, or does it not have one?

Nano 4 GPS BAD/0 satellite reception by HoUdino
Is anyone else having problems getting GPS reception with the Nano4? I’ve tried everything I can think of...returned it to the factory, left it on to an open sky for long periods of time, multiple reboots, upgraded software. Still, more often than not “BAD/0”. Quite frustrating! Lars T

I have an HP IPAQ 310 that I run X-C Soar on, that won't turn on. :-( I left it in my bag for a few months and didn't use it, and wouldn't be surprised if the battery ran down. Before that period, it worked fine and was not in a condition to suffer physical damage. When I plug it in, the amber...
