Hint:

I asked the owner how could this be and he brought over one of his
'techies' who explained that they measured the equator location with a
military GPS and also my iQue was using the wrong Map datum (the WGS
option they told me they used wasn't even an option on my iQue).

It is impossible in principle for a GPS receiver
to -measure- the position of the equator.
