Controllable external to internal antenna switching algorithm and circuit for position reporting device

A method for configuring an electronic device comprising:

• (A) substantially continuously detecting motion of an electronic device by using an initiating device disposed within said electronic device, said electronic device comprising said initiating device, a position determining component, and a wireless communications component;
• said initiating device further comprising:
• a motion detecting component, a controller, a memory including a switch algorithm, and a processor;
• said position determining component further comprising an internal antenna, a port for an external antenna, an antenna/power supply switch;
• and an external antenna;
• said wireless communications component further comprising a wireless modem, and a wireless antenna;
• (B) substantially continuously receiving at least one external radio signal by using an initially selected antenna of said position determining component;
• said at least one external radio signal being used by said position determining component to determine position location of said electronic device;
• and
• (C) if reception of said at least one external radio signal is not optimized, using said antenna/power supply switch to switch radio signal path between said initially selected antenna and a subsequently selected antenna to optimize the reception of said at least one external radio signal.
