I haven't used a SPOT for a few years. There were times in the afternoon that it would take a long time for the signal to find a satellite. Maybe it is the same now. It was around 2-3 pm.

I learned in science class that you could power a light bulb with a potato, I suggest you wire your spot to a potato and try it again











My friend tried his spot, it worked normal
