The Aquarius2 is usually installed with two antennaes.  It will continue to get a position if antennae #2 is missing but
will not provide a heading.  If antennae #1 is missing, it will not be able to get a position at all even if #2 is still
connected.  

Knowing this can help figure out which antenna or antenna connection is bad.  If you have a position but no heading
check antenna #2.  If you don't get a position at all, check antenna #1.
