I have the files downloaded if people want them I can host them on the net to save you trying to register just to look at them.

Thank you Mendip,
but i can only see [attachment...] but no more information.
I´m really hoping, that Egon or Tobi are responding to this issue. Just like they did it in the beginning of this wonderful project.
Unfortunatly it became more and more quiet the last years...
So Egon, Tobi, we really appreciate your help. If the blitzortung project would come to an end, it would be nice to run the receivers only as NTP-servers. but right now, even this functionality isn´t warranted,

Until a forum admin turns up the attachments will just be hidden. I might just upload them to the net and maybe someone with some time might be able to work out the way that you can upgrade the firmware.
The other idea that wafted through my brain was how hard would it be to swap put for the ublox M8 which can be found for £25 on digikey.

Station 2002, Warwickshire, UK here. System Blue PCB 19.3
Can't give you the full specs as the system is now offline...
Same GPS problem for me, spotted just after the clock change 30th Oct 2022. I checked the local address to see how the system had reacted to the clock change. I noticed the GPS fault at that time.
I researched the GPS issue today and saw some 2016 posts about dry joints. In my haste to fix a potential solder joint issue, it looks like I've bust my System Blue. I now just get horrendous interference mode instead. As well as the "year is not between 2013 and 2031" error a lot of us are starting to see.
Now I see it may just be a firmware bug for the GPS issue. Fingers crossed.
I'll keep an eye on the forum moving forward, but I hope I was the only one who possibly screwed their system trying to fix a hardware problem that didn't exist in the first place. Doh!

Hope it will be fixed as soon as possible. Missed snow thunderstorm today due to system failure :<

Hello
The same troubles here with station 1671. Exchanging the GPS antenna, restarting the system, rebooting . . . no change, still no GPS signal and no tracking.
I suggest a server problem. Why is there no reaction/information from the server administration?
Cheers Hans

GPS needs an firmware update. Nothing wrong with the servers.

Dear all,
we also see the problem. Unfortunately, the problem does not occur with my own station. But it seems to be probably a firmware error in some older GPS modules. We'll do more research before we recommend anything.
Regards,
Egon
