Has anyone tried one of these receivers with NAV software? ================================================= I've been using the old version of Delorme's USB GPS with Maptech chatrting software for at least three or four years. It works fine. The new version of their GPS is USB only however. The older one could be ordered with a RS-232 serial port cable which is what my nav software wants to see. That is the only caveat that I would offer: Be sure your charting package will accept data on a USB port, or buy a USB to serial converter. |
