Dear Tracking Tracy,
I wonder, is it legal to track vehicles or people with GPS Tracking Devices? Also, where’s the best place to put the GPS Tracker device on a vehicle?
Listen, we at Quantum-Wireless.com aren’t lawyers and you should contact your local law enforcement agencies to check the legality of the devices. In most cases the GPS Tracker devices are legal. They’re used by independent contractors to track potential cheaters, and other applications like fleet management.
Putting the GPS Tracking Device in a visible location so that it transmits the signal to the satellites is the most important part of getting accurate updates. The optimal performance is when there’s no obstruction between the device and the sky. It can also receive deflected signals from the ground. GPS signals transmit through glass, plastic, rubber, fiberglass, carpeting and cardboard. The GPS Tracker device should not be surrounded by metal or concrete. Metal and concrete have the greatest effect on the signal.
Test the GPS Tracker on several locations on the vehicle to determine the optimal reception point on the vehicle, while still being discrete.
