bpcw0001 Posted October 3, 2023 Report Posted October 3, 2023 (edited) Hi, for a while now, I've been losing GPS when approaching Berlin (EDDB) airport. On inspection of the GPS jammer map provided with the challenger, it shows a GPS jamming station which according to that map must be somewhere just south of Berlin: However, there is no GPS jamming in Germany listed anywhere. Neither in the CL650's "gps_jammers.txt" file, nor in any other available gps jammer source on the internet. Where does this jamming station come from??? Edited October 3, 2023 by bpcw0001 Quote
Pils Posted October 3, 2023 Report Posted October 3, 2023 I don’t see any active stations on this map? Quote

OK. Thanks. I had GPS outages when I took the Challenger into the Middle East, where this is expected, so I did not consult the map, which would have taught me what the jammer depiction looks like. Consistent loss of GPS around Berlin on multiple occasions, days apart, made me misinterpret the situation. Sorry. Edited October 3, 2023 by bpcw0001 Quote
