Can someone explain a dongle to me. Does it come with Nobeltec Admiral 7 or
does it come with the charts. I'm not exactly sure what the dongle is
protecting?



With Nobeltec Admiral, it's mainly there for protecting the
_international_ Passport charts. You can even buy the dongle separately
(although this is included in the initial package price).

When you buy Admiral it comes with a license number that allows you to
install the software and have it operate permanently. If you have the
dongle you don't need to register your PC, without the dongle you do
need to do this (or it stops working).

International Passport charts do _NOT_ work without a dongle present in
the physical PC they're being watched on. Having a different PC in the
network with a separate Admiral license and a dongle is not enough.
