The code is fine but it seems it won't switch baud rates using pyserial. I have to initiate the first msg in 9600 to change the setting of the gps And then send the second command in 115200 because it's in configuration mode on the unit. I can see hooking two pcs together via null modem that the command is sent but I don't see the next msg go across. I'll try sleeps but even w a 15 sec sleep after close connection to allow for configuration mode to set (Which only takes about 4 seconds) it wasn't sending the second command. Weird. My buddy suggested I make two files for the separate calls but I wouldn't think that would make a diff or be necessary... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
