Absolutely nothing wrong with it. I personally got one to work in a couple of hours, including the drive to the parts store to pick up an RS232 connector and a short USB cable. The USB cable has 4 wires, with +5V on Red (Black is Ground), so I simply soldered the relevant Garmin wires to TX/RX/DCD/PWR/GND, connecting the USB Red/Black wires to the last two. That's all I needed, and the GPS "just works" like this. :-) Terje -- - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "almost all programming can be viewed as an exercise in caching" _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
