“It’s a Samyung SRG-1150DN,” said Min-jun, the ship’s young electrician, placing a cardboard box on the navigation table. Inside lay a sleek navigation receiver—a black slab of modern technology designed to pull salvation from the sky. “The old GPS is shot. This one does GLONASS too. Better redundancy.”
By Section 4.7 (“Grounding the chassis to prevent RF interference”), Min-jun discovered the shielding on the antenna cable was loose.

“We have a fix,” Min-jun whispered.
“Section 3.1: ‘Ensure the NMEA 0183 baud rate matches the autopilot. Default is 4800. For heading sensors, use 38400.’” He paused. “I used 9600.”
