Anyone a GPS expert?

I bought a “Michelin X-930 GPS Navigation” GPS for our traveling and I had to send it back for a refund 2 weeks later due to lack of a signal in Minneapolis, Seattle and Portland, which of course, is where I needed a GPS the most.

I am now looking for a new one and I see most are listed as “12 channel” and “20 channel” and should I assume a 20 is better then a 12?

I tried to look up the one I had to see the specs but it is now discontinued, and the few places I do find it still listed doesn’t say 12 or 20 so I have no clue what it was but I do know it was not strong enough to work in cities.
