Yes they sell for about $35 on EB. But you will need to build a support/interface for it. Yo will need some voltage regulators, a 74*04 inverter (the RS232 standard has DCD non-inverted but inverts data) TTL to RS232 level converters, 10-pin female headers and other misc parts. And a GPS antenna and cable. Also I think it uses an MCX connector for the antenna cable. You either have to get an MCX cable or replace the connector on the M12+ A just went through this process and can now blink a LED at 1Hz but as of yet not much else. Those Oncore GPS receivers are great but as shipped from Hong Kong they are just a bare receiver, not a working system. -- ===== Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
