Hi Mark-
I hope your right! The thing is that this Tbolt has always behaved itself w/ the indoor antenna and has never taken long to stablize.

I really need to put in a feed through to the roof because my Z3801A is struggling with an indoor antenna too; but the roof needs to get replaced first...

That sounds like your indoor antenna is the problem. I have had very poor luck with indoor antennas. Even my outdoor antenna is rather bad... too many very big trees.
I get constant satellite constellation changes (sometimes several times a minute). My first self survey took three days to complete. Where my antenna is now, I can complete a survey in a couple of hours (but at only a couple of times each day).
Also many GPS receivers tend to have a hard time starting up when they have not been used for a while. It takes a long time for the oscillator to stabilize enough to work properly. I had a tbolt that had not been used for a couple of years. It took about a week before it settled down enough to be really usable.

However, about 2 hours into my test it started loosing sats (indoor antenna, 3 to 6 sats at any given time;
