Bob-

No experience with automotive GPS, but all you should really need is
line-of-sight with three GPS satellites. Should work most anywhere, except
in fully covered (tunnel, parking structure) situations.

Hi, GPSers

I recently read of a company putting a speedometer gauge
plus a tach readout and other info. using a GPS signal as
its input. Big plus is an accurate speedometer independent
of axle ratio and tire size.

What, if anything, is needed to pick up GPS signals
in an auto.?

Thanks in advance.
Bob
