  1. I commissioned (fitted) a Raymarine element 9HV recently which dropped its position randomly but quite frequently. We resolved by reducing the resolution of its position output. It was a setting well hidden and I am not sure if it looked at less satellites or used a less intensive algorithm but this worked and may give you a lead. Had earlier tried to reducing the plot to 5 second separation and problem remained, after reducing resolution it now also accepts 1 second plot separation happily. Brien
