[time-nuts] basic question on GPS satellites

Hi there. Recently acquired my first GPSDO. It is a datum 9390 (thank you,
Norm!). One aspect of its behavior seems strange to me. Within a matter of
a few minutes, it seems that satellites are appearing and disappearing. Are
the satellites moving that quickly? I might go from 1SV to 3SV or 4SV and
then a minute later go to 1SV or none. The antenna isn't moving and the
trees aren't moving too much today. I have not done anything with regard to
setting minimum elevation or any other parameters. I did go through the
COLD RESTART procedure to clear out everything and let it start from
scratch.
Do other GPSDO users experience something like this?
