Would those of you on the list mind looking at your GPSes and seeing
if their offsets have shifted from 15 to 16 seconds?

I was watching my GPS (GlobalSat SiRF II with 2.3.2 firmware) at the
insertion point and so far the GPS is still not reporting the
additional second in the UTC offset.  I've already cold started it and
it's still reporting the wrong time.

Hi Alexander

We have a few ST Ericsson GNS7560s and all of them that I can access at
the moment appear to have picked up the new UTC Correction parameter
correctly and on schedule.

Cheers

Thanks for checking.  I'm not sure why mine hasn't picked up yet but
looking at it with SiRFDemo it still shows the UTC offset at 15
instead of the new 16.  I would have thought a cold start should fix it.
What's your skyview like?

Skyview is good. During the insertion I had seven satellites locked. Currently I have six locked with four more too far down on the horizon to lock. Signals were good ranging from 35-45 db-Hz. HDOP has been holding below 2.0 and the overall wander has been steady inside a 10 meter circle. I also have the SBAS satellite in view and locked.

Overall, it shouldn't have had an issue getting the offset message. It's currently still reporting 15 seconds offset.
