     I prefer to use a map and a compass that is in my Jeep. I have made it to all of my clients on time using that method. I feel it would be like a calculator, I can no longer do large mathematical problems in my head due to lack of practice. I am afraid of what would happen if that was the case with GPS systems.

     The GPS system sends the data of all sats. The receivers need to know that. Probably you can ask your receiver.
