I recently took my new TomTom to Chicago yesterday. The GPS was ok on the highway to the city but once in the city, the GPS stuggles to navigate me. Is this pretty normal with the TomTom and other GPS' in cities?
I've heard that this sometimes occurs when navigating around tall buildings. It has to do with the satellite signal being bounced around between building... or signal 'ducting'. I think all brands of GPS units suffer the same thing.<snip> I only had issue when surrounded on all sides by buildings 40 stories and taller.
Are your GPS fix files up to date?Hmmm, I had the same problem in the wide streeted, 3-4 story buildings just East of downtown LA last night. First time that I have seen that happen on my unit.
