There are 3 WAAS satellites, 2 of which are for North America. As you can see in some locations, one of the satellites might well be below the horizon, and the other one fairly low, so it's quite easy to have your antenna too low and have the fuselage block the signal. In an ES it's not quite a bad because of the E glass instead of Carbon Fiber, but you still get some shading. **************Gas prices getting you down? Search AOL Autos for fuel-efficient used cars.
