West coast, both within Glasgow and then up the coast from Helensburgh. Failed to sort itself out despite 45 minutes and a few on/offs.</p> <p>Hmm. See how it behaves later... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10534#post-115358 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 09:22:50 +0000 DaveC 115358@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>No problems with my Samsung Galaxy S2. Do you live in a highrise area? I setoff home from St James centre and oftern have to trundle down York Place where its more open to find a lock. If not it can sometimes be the red bridge on the NEPN (Crewe Toll) before it locks. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10534#post-115357 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 09:16:58 +0000 amir 115357@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>No problems with my Garmin Edge, I think. Were you using a phone or a dedicated GPS? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10534#post-115355 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 08:59:24 +0000 Darkerside 115355@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Completely failed to lock on this morning*.</p> <p>According to a quick google there was pretty chunky solar flare activity around the same time, which I know can have an effect. I'm intrigued as to whether this is actually the cause, or whether the edge was just having a sulk.</p> <p>Anyone else suffer?</p> <p>*I like this - it makes me feel like I'm ten years old and playing at fighter pilots again... </p>
