Please post a reference to your post that you reference above. I ask
as I am using an android phone and it seems to be able to receive and
post GPS signals directly from the satellites.

I am using an application called "OsmAnd" that has the ability to
download and store charts on the phone.

Bruce, not sure if you are replying to me or not. If you're
interested in the Navionics charts and apps, they are on the Google
store. The GPS definitely works directly from the satellites contrary
to what someone else posted.
