Hi Steve, Michael,

For what it's worth, the random "possible theft" events decreased dramatically since the fix, but I have had a couple. One this past April (4/19/2021, 06:52 PST), and I think there was one a bit before that (the log goes back to 4/12).

This is with the car sitting in the garage, metal door closed. I expect it's a matter of the constellation's geometry at the time. They're certainly not often enough to be a problem.

The symptom is false vehicle theft/flatbed alerts. Gregd send a
message to ovmsdev about this in his Roadster on 2018-09-17. In May
2019 there was more discussion on the list. I did some logging and
caught one of these events and reported it on 2019-05-29.

Over time, the remediations we have discussed on the list were to
constrain that alert to the condition of the car being off (parked)
and to increase the radius that the jump would need to exceed.

I added the general park distance smoothing on 2019-11-26 to solve this, commit: 8219d4f61cc081b73f45f52b27dd80170b2ef4bd

If the issue still is present for the Roadster, new "location" debug logs including the recently added data will show what needs to be done about that.

Regards,
Michael
