Anyone having trouble with QC

Is any one else that drives for panther been having trouble with there qcs.
In the last couple of months it has been taken some load offers something like 15mins before they come across my qc. I kept track of loads by checking my panther web site and see that I am on a pro but nothing has come across the qc so I call in to get the information and have my self made aware so that I don't loss the load.

And right now I just checked and it is showing that I am sitting 20 miles from where I really am.

I have picked loads up at the shipper and have left and sent all info over qc and 20mins later would get calls from dispatch to see if I was lost and needed help finding the shipper, and already be headed to the consignee.

Sometimes I think that those aliens are picking up my messages, "JOKE"

it is not just panther, I have a real problem when I check into my home express center. It showed me that I was out as far as 300 miles away and gotten offers for loads in windsor, toledo and jackson. Checking in going up I 75 is a trip, the closer I get to my exit, the farther the QC puts me from home. First it is 65 miles, then 70 then 75 - all within 5 miles of when I started to check in. at the exit I can be 85 miles or 100.

I went shopping one day and saw another fedex driver, so I went over to talk to him. He just picked up a load down the street from me (sort of) and had to DH 35 miles to get to it. sitting at home I was 3.5 miles away while shopping I was .5 mile away and had over 45 hours dwell over his 'just checked in' status. Yes I got the reason why, it showed me 70 miles out.

I have talked to others who have the same problems, they had their equipment swapped out, new stuff put in and still QualComm puts them some where else.

Two things that cn screw up your location are ,a dirty antennta globe and a lot of satelite data being transmitted in your area. Washington DC is very bad for that. I have been sitting off I 495 and they showed me in Norfolk VA.

I can drive through a large parking lot & see the "no signal" light keep flashing on, then off, on again, off again - I just blamed it on sunspots, lol, but I guess I'll clean the dome just in case. Maybe that will cut down on the "please resend" messages....Thanks, Rich.:)
