Tom & Jacksonlll-I've taken it on back roads on a 40 mile trip, and it never gets past "searching for satellite."

Western77-I was running it on 6 volts, (read where GPS & cell phones only need 5 volts) so that may be the problem. When I charge my cell phone, it gets 'almost fully charged' but never shows fully charged. I'll try fully charging the unit in my modern car, and then try it. Looks like I may need the 6/12 volt adaptor.
