        Actually that's worst case conditions.  I've never gotten a reported
SA that far off.  More often plus or minus 100 ft off true position.  Not
unusual to get +- 30 ft.   I figure I'm happy if the gps position is close
enough I can throw a rock at the true position.  It's still less than the
pencil mark width I'd mark the map with.
