If your GPS system is stolen out of your tractor can it be relocated when it is turned back on?

[Edit]

Answer

Unfortunately, a GPS is a receiver only. It locates its position on the surface of the earth by determining its distance from a series of satellites. It does not transmit any information back to the satellites, which would be necessary for a satellite to locate the GPS.
