Or he's got a Seatalk to NMEA converter somewhere.

No, you can see the streams of Seatalk with hyperterm....

If there is NOISE OR RF INTERFERENCE OR SOME SEATALK GOING CRAZY Hyperterm
will fill with graphic gibberish! You don't have to decode the Seatalk to
see the crap in there with it....

Larry, I'd like to discuss some of these topics via email -
can you please contact me at google atsign cognisense dot com?

Thanks, Keith

Sure, but you're too late to hide the address because it shows up in your
message header. You might want to change that to a fake one to get it away
from the spambots.

I'll email you...

Nope. I was a home.com customer on Comcrap. Any spam I can create for
them befits the lack of service I was rendered.

When did they come back online? Bankruptcy court know about that?

Larry, you're spamming a known and used domain.


I'm doing no such thing. I don't spam anyone and I resent you saying so.

Wrong. It's a binary protocol and the signal levels are inverted from
RS232. There no ASCII characters involved in it. Read the document that I
posted the link to in rec.boats.electronics. If there's anything readable,
it's only by pure chance.
