The signal is powerful and at a fairly low frequency. You should be able
to pick it up most of the time without too much trouble. However, I urge
against using such devices. I have personally had very bad luck with them,
and they generally cost about as much as a GPS receiver, which is far
superior. (Assuming you can arrange for the antenna to have a view of open
sky.)
