Thanks Keith, I will make those changes you suggested. I only put in
2-2 since I plan on only using 5w while mobile.
Scott - updating the firmware on the Nuvi has the same results. I'm
thinking after work tonight I will have to try the XYL's Nuvi 265 and
see if I can at least get that into fleet mode and rule out any problems
with the GPS. If that doesn't work, I will have to test out the cable
with the ohm meter. I should see continuity between the USB pins and
the DB9 pin even with the shift circuit in place, correct?
Thanks again for the help guys

When you get it sorted out, you should correct the path.Your current
path is WIDE2-2,WIDE1-1. WIDE1-1 should never be used anywhere
except at the beginning of the path. The recommended path for mobile
stations in North America is WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1.
Anyone studying your beacon should be able to tell it's a "Tracker 2"
by the destination. I would recommend shortening the beacon text from
"-Argent Data OT2m-" to just "T2" or even eliminate it completely. The
shorter your beacon, the greater your chances of success, and the nicer
it is for those around you. If you don't want to eliminate it, at least
have it go out only every 10 transmissions.
