So yeah, as the title implies, my garmin gps isn't catching any satellite signals. As its straight out of the box, I thought maybe that it was a normal thing in setup, but i've been trying to connect it for a little over an hour. I'm inside, but I have taken it outside for a few minutes. It just doesn't catch. Everything else seems to work properly, so is this just a defective model, or is this something that can be remedied?

Yes, you need to leave it outside for more than a few minutes as the first time you use it it needs to download a fair bit of data from the satellites in order to determine where in the world it is. You need to be patient :)
