The logs, once pulled off the device are nmea. I can deal with those OK using gpsbabel, etc. Pulling the logs off the device requires some kind of command interaction that is buried in a Windows program. I could not get gpsd/sirfmon to do any thing useful. Looking through the output from strings data_load.exe I did find these format strings: If you have any pointers, that would be great. -- Lloyd Kvam Venix Corp DLSLUG/GNHLUG library http://www.librarything.com/catalog/dlslug http://www.librarything.com/profile/dlslug http://www.librarything.com/rsshtml/recent/dlslug _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
