    Gday Wayne, Firstly have you set it up,Set the time offset +10 00hrs set datum WGS84,turned off simulator checked antenna plug,Check GPS source is NMEA for external antenna if you have one,set your time format and day/date make sure antenna has clear view of the sky.If you have done everything then might be faulty.But definately check your antenna selection and choose the approprate check box.Jim
