Hi Anthony,
When you ran Satstat, did you open the serial port? Click Commport->Settings
and set it 9600,8,N,1. Then click Commport->Port open. Works OK under XP for
me. I haven't tried it under Wine as I'm out of serial ports on the server and
have the laptop to use.

I was finally able to get my units to lock and behave as described below. I am
still unable to get any data into the PC, either via the RS422 to RS232 hack or
through Götz Romahn's modification of the RS422 output. This issue must be to
do with the voltage levels.
I did connect my scope up to the RS422/1PPS output and was able to capture the
serial data coming out of that (see the screenshot at http://goo.gl/87e8GG). I
could see two of the numbers incrementing every second, so that must be a
timestamp. I have ordered a USB to RS422 cable, so hopefully that will resolve
the issue of communicating via J8. Thanks Bob for letting me know that the
active J8 is on the unit with the green ON light illuminated.
