I bought this years ago and never had any luck. Dug it up today and tried it out and finally able to poll it for GPS nmea data. However the gps location it gives when put in google earth is somewhere in mainland china. Anyone come across something like this? I'm not entirely sure it's actually getting a signal or a lock even though it's supposed to have 12 channels. Receiving is at least partially working because I am getting a correct time. OT for my own post :) I bought this just to learn more about GPS's back before they were reasonably cheap. Does anyone recommend a nice serial based GPS module that could be used in projects? I'm working with PIC and the MSP-EXP430 board. -Josh --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
