Hi,
I have bought my first GPS module from AliExpress , a WAVGAT Neo6mv2. I connect it to my computer to test if it working using a USB to RS232 module with 3.3V jumper on it. I just opened the serial monitor and set 9600 baud rate and i could see something reading from GPS module starting with $GPGSA $GPGSV $GPGLL and some numbers after it. So i think module is working, right? But i was indoor so i did the same at my balkony using my mobile and arduino app to see the serial monitor. I saw the same readings but as before they were all the time the same, same numbers etc. So i think receiver cant read any satelite. I left it for long time but nothing. Always the same readings. I did also many tests with arduino but no luck to see satelites.
Am i doing something wrong or the module is defected?
Maybe antenna not working. Is it possible? How can i test antenna?
In serial monitor i see:
