One GPS satellite can serve an unlimited number of receivers, if they have

unobstructed line-of-sight.

GPS receivers need to see a minimum of 4 satellites in order to calculate an

accurate 3-dimensional position. Almost all of them have the ability to work

with up to 12 satellites simultaneously, if they can see that many.

What can I do to fix this everytime I key up my CB radio it causes my GPS receiver to lose signal and I have to unplug it and plug it in again to get signal back GPS is outside opposite of antennae?

There is no way to solve the problem. Because of the high power of the CB transmitter and the low power of the satellite signals, the CB signal clips the GPS receiver, and it can even damage your GPS. The CB and the GPS unit work on entirely different frequencies, to be sure, but the fact that a several watt transmitter of any kind is right on top of a GPS unit can hammer the GPS. There is no way to "limit" the radiated power of the CB (if you still want it to work) so that it won't affect the GPS.

How gps receiver indicates that it is reverted to DR position fixing?

The GPS receiver in your GPS unit cannot do this, it only provides the GPS fix, quality of the fix (typically as CEP), and whether fix is 3D 2D or No fix. It is the responsibility of the navigation computer connected to the GPS receiver to determine if dead reckoning is needed, how to do it, and what indication if any should be given. I have seen units give no indication at all then show impossible driving moves, while other units (e.g. the TomTom) grey the entire screen in that mode.

Where does gps receiver get its signal from?

A GPS receiver gets its signal from a network of satellites orbiting the Earth. These satellites continuously transmit signals that the GPS receiver uses to calculate its position and determine accurate time information. By receiving signals from multiple satellites, the GPS receiver can triangulate its position with high precision.
