Larry,
If your using an external GPS and wanting to use the computer try using FransGate( http://franson.com/gpsgate/index.asp?ref=menu ). It will allow you the parse a COM port to multiple programs. Like Kenneth said you can also use a program like D-RATS on your PC and receive GPS data into its program while being able to send data, e-mails, and files. 73 Barry KA0BBQ From: dstar_digital@yahoogroups.com [mailto:dstar_digi...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of larryhayter Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2009 5:22 AM To: dstar_digital@yahoogroups.com Subject: [DSTAR_DIGITAL] GPS with D-Star I have been using D-Star now for about 6 months and enjoy mobiling. My radio is and IC91AD and I have recently started using the GPS function. Unfortunately, there is only one radio port and when using GPS I cannot use other computer connections or software. Does anyone have any ideas on how to port the GPS data to the radio from a PC. E.g. GPS > PC > Radio. This way I could switch software instead of cables...just asking!! 73 Larry - VE3LGH [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
