Yes it does.
Well there's why they keep a good fix then .
Yes it does.
One more question - can it pick up the GPS in the cabin of a 390? It does get a bit tiring standing up in the vestibules for 2½ hour runs...
Thanks TGV; my local Maplin has the 245 at £49.99 which I have reserved for a few days ( they tell me it's discontinued; they have two in stock and will not be replacing them once sold ) pending your answer to my question.
Methinks I'll definitely get it now you've said it should.
Should say, though, that I have locked onto GPS with the Garmin Foretrex 101 under the roof at Waterloo from inside a 455, but as I said I can't get any signal on any Desiros. So... the 245 is looking very good.
I don't suppose you've tried it out on the Voyager family yet?
TGV - thanks; most Voyager trips I end up standing anyway unless I can get on board at the start point as soon as the thing opens for boarding!
Well, if it can get a fix in the Voyager cabins it certainly should in the 390 cabins as the Voyagers have more metal in their window film than anything else. And as I live in SWT territory ( meaning I get more than a few Desiro rides! ) I think I'm convinced enough...
