Canmore GT-730F is quite different than other USB GPS receivers for a couple of reasons. First it doesn’t need an extension cable to keep the receiver away from the laptop thanks to its enhanced antenna and RF frequency tuning. Secondly it supports A-GPS which can cut your satellite fix time in half.
With the supplied A-GPS software (PC application), users may download the most updated satellite data (known as almanac) from SkyTraq servers and store the satellite data in to the Canmore USB GPS stick dongle.
