I have searched the GPS threads hoping to find an answer to this question, but had no luck. I have a new mySKY star exploration instrument that uses GPS to identify stars I see in the sky and to give me a tour of the stars I see on any given night. I want to use it here in the DR.
I am trying to set my location on the gizmo. It asks for the nearest satellite. It has Dominican Republic and Santo Domingo, but then, the mySKY stops, freezes. Is there a satellite over Santo Domingo? Is it operational?
If not, the nearest satellite would be above what city, US or otherwise?
I wonder if the mySKY freezes because there are no nearby satellites, the same problem had by car GPS systems.
There is a customer service number for the mySKY, but it is an 800 number.
Hope someone can shed some light on this for me.
Thanks-
Lindsey
