Hello Bill,

a cheap USB-GPS dongle for US$ 10,- and the Meinberg free software
will solve the problem.

Set server entry:

server 127.127.20.3 minpoll 4 prefer # NMEA serial port

The fourth number in the IP-address field (127.127.20.3) should be the
COM port number - 3 in this example.

Hope they (VK9MA) have such gadget with them.
