  Downloaded newest version and tried it out today. I was unable to get a satellite lock though. Both of my other gps programs locked on, but BCN would only track satellites, not lock on. in 2 hours of roving and testing, I was not ONCE able to get lock. Even when the GPS status said it had a "2d" lock, the  map had NO gps locator arrow.

HELP  !!!!

Is the "Keep On Screen" menu item checked? - Just to check something simple first.

The only thing I think that would prevent a position update is dilution of precision.  It is set to a minimum of DilutionOfPrecision.Fair.
