Do you mean GPS signals?

There are periods of the day where your DOP values are very high.  They can be short, 10-15 minutes, or longer, sometimes up to an hour. 

You can usually check your DOP values with software like Trimbles Planning module which comes with Trimble Geomatics Office.

Actually, while I was doing some quick research on free planning software, I came across this link which tells you all about how the system works.  Also, they link to Trimbles free planning software, which I didnt realize was actually free.

Good luck!
