It may depend somewhat on the model. Also, the signal degrades if it has to
go through walls, etc. I use a Garmin Etrex Legend that I have had for two
or three years. It works fine in the car hooked to my notebook, although it
does claim better accuracy when it is lying on the dash. It works in many
houses, but not those with the new metal roofs. It works in an airplane as
long as I hold it near the window.

Being new to GPS receivers I am curious about sensitivity. My receiver is a
cheaper magellan model. It doesn't work inside buildings or airplanes. Are
there any receivers that work well anywhere?
