Can I connect 2 RS2323 devices to listen to a GPS ie just solder the receive
wires to the GPS Send pin ?
I currently have my laptop taking NMEA from my Garmin GPS45 for basic
positioning data. I now want to add a NASA Clipper GPS repeater in the
cockpit.
Thanks

Yes you can do that. Wether it will work depends a bit on the driving power
of the GPS but in general, two listeners should work. There won't be any
damage done to the GPS if it does not work.

Hi,

Yes it will work, you may need to boost the signal depending on the source,
but it's only one chip and few discreet components.
