Hello,
I'm new to gps and PDA but got myself hx4700 and BT GPS that can track 16 satellites at the time Smile I'm looking for any software that could tell me more about the satellites it tracks e.g. altitude, position, name etc... perhaps with nice graph of trajectory ? 3D maybe ?
I'm giving class on physics and wan't to show my students the cool things Smile)

cheers and thanks in advance

Some of the Navigation programs show that data , but most are doing the 2D display only. If you let VisualGPSCE run for a while it will draw the trajectories - pretty nity, and good enough to explain how the sats are arranged.

I'm pretty sure you find some animations on the web, also in 3D
