Hi Kyle
Some questions
1. Do you have clear access to sky? Are you testing outside?
2. How many satellites is gpsmon showing?
3. What value are you seeing next to HDOP in gpsmon?
4. Is the switch in the “int” position?

+The GPS module is certified to operate up to -40 degrees.
+When you first power on the GPS module, you will need to get a fix. If you take power away, the superCap will hold the fix information for a couple of hours. When you restart within a couple of hours, you will get a fix very quickly. However, if the power is off for longer than a few hours, you will need to start the fix process again.
+An external antenna will increase the reception greatly.
