Ahh that is a good catch! I'll try and get this fixed ASAP and get a new release out.
Just curious, was the sonde in flight when its GPS dropped out?
Reopened until I actually fix it :-)
Should be fixed in https://github.com/projecthorus/horus-gui/releases/tag/v0.3.13
I have tried a little bit with Horus-Gui, a directional antenna and automatic antenna tracking via rotctl. When the observed sonde had a temporary GPS dropout, I could observe a funny bug.
The sonde transmitted longitude = 0, latitude=0, after which Horus-Gui turned the antenna exactly in this direction. :-) So I couldn't receive the sonde at all, even when the sonde was sending correct coordinates again.
I made a small change to the program gui.py to prevent this effect. Please check my improvement if it is possible to apply it to your software.
