Low or non existent sattelite reception in US

[andromeda9]

Hi,

Taken my O2 XDA Orbit to the states, and I'm getting poor sattelite reception and need help getting it going.
I'm in major citys - Harrisburg and moving onto Washington.

I'm using Cube and the visual reception program shows it picks up 10-12 sats but no strength shows on the bars.

Tries TomTom6 and the same - perthaps just one bar.

Did a hard reset... the same. Usual stuff checked like COM4 at 4800 ..

Anyone any ideas?

Thanks

A

It's the tall buildings,had the same problem in New York.On my previous XDA with seperate bluetooth gps,even tried putting it under my hat for better reception,to no avail.
