That's the normal pattern. > I did not try to connect a PC to get any status info because I am no > computer wizard. In fact I have two left hands regarding computers. You really need that connection if you want to understand what is going on. Can you get a friend to help? My setup is currently working without a RS422-RS232 converter. I did have troubles a while ago with a different PC. I assume the problem was poor grounding. The "No GPS" LED on my REF-1 blinks when I disconnect the antenna and goes on solid if I move the antenna to a crappy position (or for a while after I reconnect the antenna). The same LED on the REF-0 goes on after a short delay - no blinking. -- These are my opinions.
