Hi.. its been a long time since my last post in Aulro.com

This time i would like to share my DIY project regarding GPS signal that always refuse to come in to my defender. Should I explain more? As we know the wind screen is so stiff that it is difficult for the GPS unit to see the sky where all the satellite are located.. and I'm using tinting film on my glass.
Futher more I'm using my mobile phone as GPS machine. There is no socket or plug that I can plug in a GPS antenna. A re-radiation system is require for me to have a strong or good GPS reception.

Here is my Re-radiating GPS Signal anttena project.

GPSOz sell a couple of different re-radiators. One has a 2-2.5m range. I've been thinking about mounting one above the back door, with the transmitter forward of the cargo barrier, to compliment the through-windscreen reception.
