I gathered, perhaps incorrectly, that the guy is extremely smart at the GPS and RF portions, maybe not quite as much so on the FPGA side. Or maybe he just didn't have enough time to devote to the FPGA portion? The other thing is that it was probably just much easier to write the code on his PC than design the logic. --=20 Martin K. --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
