Very recently Tac32 was upgraded to allow one to choose most of the GPS receiver communications parameters but even with this I can not achieve any data. GPS Control is set as : Baud Rate 19200 Parity ODD Data bits 7 Stop bits 1 Handshake NONE Please someone help me with suggestions as to what protocol the 3801A outputs and whether it is possible to use Tac32 successfully using the same communication paramaters as for the BDS software? Thanks - Merv VK6BMT ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list [email protected] https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts End of time-nuts Digest, Vol 100, Issue 36 ****************************************** _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
