The Satellite Position page shows the positions of the overhead satellites and their
signal strength. It also indicates the on/off status of the SBAS and logging functions.
SBAS (satellite-based augmentation system) provides additional accuracy and
reliability for the GPS devices. Ground stations are necessary to achieve the purpose.
The SBAS feature works where such stations exist. You can enable the SBAS feature.
