One additional comment on Cold: For GPS receivers that remember where they were when shut down, if you move them more than about 300 miles when powered off and then turn them back on, they have to do a cold start. Depending on the receiver, cold starts can be between 2 and 10 minutes to acquire. If you move during the acquisition cycle, that TTFF (time to first fix) can expand significantly.
