Goodo. Should work fine there

It does sometimes take 20-30 mins to pick up a signal first time around

Is it currently in germany somewhere?

Sounds like its definately not receiveing the satellites then. The connections are quite fragile on them - thankfully inexpensive to replace though.

Afraid not without looking. Itll be in the long coding helper on the radio settings i imagine.
