Checked my settings, appear to be ok, Nuvi in not responding to anything
sent to it now, was thinking might be a defective cable, since I don't have
another, I can't check it, and it appears that Scott is sold out.

I'm not sure what the response, if any to "--xxx" messages is, as your
post is not clear. Do you get responses to "--xxx" commands, or not?
If not, then either the physical layer link is broken between the T2
and the nuvi, the T2 is not receiving or responding to commands, or the Nuvi
is not sending commands or receiving responses. Clear all or some of the
waypoints out of the Nuvi (pick local digis or things you know will get
updated and see if they come back. That will establish whether the physical
link is working or not.
If you are getting responses to "--xxx" commands, or if the
waypoints are getting restored, then either the Nuvi is not sending commands
or receiving responses or the T2 is not receiving the commands or sending
responses..
Make sure the port you are using on the T2 is still set to "Garmin".
To do this you may have to put a PC on the other port. Since the cable is
made for port 1 and the default for Port 2 is "Flow" if you didn't change
port 2 to "Auto" you may not be able to communicate with the T2 using a PC
without resetting the T2 to defaults. I haven't had mine long enough to
know how to tell you to do that.
It may still come down to putting another RS-232 terminal on the
line to the Nuvi from the T2 to verify that it is sending the messages in
proper format.
Good luck,

My Nuvi appears to have developed a problem receving messages, it
was working ok, but now when I send a test message to it, nothing is
received, and when I use the --Version test, it will only receive it when I
reboot the Nuvi, it appears to be showing other stations on the map, I have
sent some test messages to KC0WNY-15, it does not receive them , any
thoughts on what the matter is?
