I'm a newbie here so please excuse me if this is a duplication. I did perform a search but didn't find anything.
I'm getting conflicting information regarding an appropriate GPS antenna for System Blue PCB 20.6. Do I need an active or a passive antenna? At one point I read the GPS needs to run on 3 VDC, yet I don't measure any voltage on the SMA connector on the board, and looking at the schematic it appears the GPS RX chip might already be on the board so passive would be what I need.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
