Unforch no, Bruno. I finally found a serial cable to my GPS (a now elderly Garmin 12E) just a couple of months ago, but its still in the blisterpack yet. Talking to it hasn't been exactly my highest priority, but would be nice. I need to get the pl2303 working first as I'm out of serial ports. Heyu and friends you know. :) >Thanks > >Bruno -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
