You need the 0.8.5 or later board versions to use the onboard GPS antenna.

Hey,

you say if the board version is v0.8.5 or newer. But in the errate the fixes are until board v0.8.2.

I have the board version 0.8.3. Is there the onboard antenna ready to use for the gps sample application?

Thanks

Hi Suttichai,

If you have an nRF91DK V0.8.5 or newer you can test it with the onboard antenna.

If you have an older version of the DK you can use an external GPS antenna (Recommended for best performance when testing)
