https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/54794/nrf9160-dk-gps-connection-problemHi, I have a nRF9160 and I am currently working with the gps example: ncs\nrf\samples\nrf9160\gps When I run the example, I only see all the time. I went out on a big field under a cloudy sky and let it run there for 5 minutes several times.

So I will get a GPS antenna.</p> <p>Should the example work on the Thingy91 or does the Thingy91 also need an external antenna?</p> <p>Thanks for your help!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/221852?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 25 Nov 2019 13:05:40 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:39d3ecdc-d895-4088-b5b1-5179c4ab8c6dH&#229;kon Alseth<p>Hi,</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>What version of the nRF9160-DK do you have? Version 0.8.2 and order has a non-optimal GPS antenna match, unfortunately:</p> <p><a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/nRF9160_DK_Errata_v0.7.pdf?cp=2_0_5">https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/nRF9160_DK_Errata_v0.7.pdf?cp=2_0_5</a></p> <p>On these older DK versions, an external antenna is recommended.</p> <p></p> <p>It can take several minutes to get a GPS fix, especially if the sky is cloudy.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Kind regards,</p> <p>Håkon</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
