SPOT bread crumb interference with GPS position

That's trying to put too fine a point on it. EMI issues in a cockpit
aren't limited to SPOT's in general, much less one particular model.
Radios can have interference from various sources, and people sometimes
have success sprinkling toroids in the wiring harness. With the antenna
traditionally located in the tail fin, most of the problems are caused
by conducted interference in the wiring.
GPS's are so sensitive that having two active gps antennas next to each
other can sometimes cause problems. Flarm says to keep all antennas at
least a foot away from any other antenna, but good luck with that in a
typical cockpit.
