Rats, it looks like it isn't going to work . driverNames() returns empty. There is a serial connection cable that I can get for it. I have a Keyspan serial->USB converter so I think I will pick that up and give it a try.
Rats. I am surprised; the GPS protocols are based on a family of navigation standards that specifies serial.
Here is an alternative to driverNames() that might come up with a different answer. (I only know of driverNames() missing the built-in modem; if you see anything else in deviceNames() and not in driverNames(), please let me know.)

Thanks for passing along the function Dar. That showed the modem but not the GPS device. I went through the connection settings on my Garmin GPS unit and it looks as if the USB connection uses a proprietary Garmin protocol. I can select from multiple protocols with a serial connection (I just don't have a serial connector yet) so I will give that a try when I can get a hold of a serial cable for it.
