Auto Refresh Time Not Working Correctly

Description

The Auto Refresh Time does not seem to be working correctly.
Last night, 10/11/2009, I set the Auto Refresh Time to 600 seconds and pressed the "Set" button. This morning I drove for about 1 hour, stopped for about 40 minutes, and then drove for about 1 hour. As you can see by a copy of the tracking log, the time between trackings was less than 600 seconds, mostly 1 or 2 minutes. The only time the tracking was about 600 seconds was from 8:04 AM to 8:27 AM today.
How can I get the Auto Refresh Time to stay at the rate I set?

Keep in mind the Auto Refresh is an OR condition. That means it will send an auto refresh every XXX seconds OR it will send one every YYY feet, whichever comes first. if you have your distance set really high the time will take precedence; if you set the distance very low then that will take precedence. It's a balancing act depending on how tight you want to track the roads (distance) vs just having location pings every so often (time).

There may not be a problem - it's been some time since I've had issues with those functions - I have more issues with it going to sleep and never waking up again (external GPS).
