Yup. That URL is for the LVC version. The PC version is the one powered from a cigarette lighter. (Your first line above says PC when I assume you mean LVC.) > I am not really sure what to do -- and I have followed the mail list for a > while, but I think I might be looking in the wrong place... Did you check the URL I sent? And the ones at the bottom of that page? Look at the picture, or get the manual from the Garmin web site. The LVC comes with a connector so they can test it. You cut it off and wire it to a DB-9 and supply power one of several ways. Then plug it into your serial port. > I perhaps need to join an NTP mail list .. http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions It's gatewayed to usenet:comp.protocols.time.ntp Check out the archives. > When you say 'more sensitive' what do you mean by that? Where are you going to put it? The GPS antenna is built into the hockey-puck. You need to get the antenna into a good-enough position. "more sensitive" means it's easier to find a location that's good enough to get a useful signal. Trees are bad. Houses are bad. Mine mostly works inside my house. It would work better if I put it outside. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
