Dear all - I recently drove a 60 mile stretch from Barnsley to Mansfield during which time by TT3 and TT bluetooth receiver briefly lost and the regained the signal 32 times - which drove me mad, my question is - what do you think the problem could be? and how should I go about resolving the issue, or failing that how do you turn off the bloody annoying bleep that happens every time you loose then regain the GPS signal.

Check the amount of sats you have with the GPS in-car, then move it outside the car and see if it increases. If it does then you may have an athermic coated windscreen.

32 times? Were you REALLY counting? 8O

Seriously though, I have noticed a number of short duration GPS dropouts the last few days - and it seems to be GPS that's dropping out, not Bluetooth, as it normally is on a 2210. Blue light is steady, no flashing green light. Anyone else seen the same?

To turn off the annoying noise, use the volume slider in the GPS program screen (GPS tab). Accessible from TomTom Navigator screen (GPS Status).
