GPS offset

Hi all,

I have an issue with my GPS (mtk 1.6) on a APM with all the bells and whistles which is giving me a reading that is about 1 mile out from the position given by Google maps and my nokia GPS, I am in Spain and I have my commas and dots set to English (US).

Many thanks up front to all who are working there neurons for the benefit of all.

Do you have the new firmware on the MTK? The longitude error is a known issue with 1.4 Do a search here...
