I need to connect a recent Garmin GPS (USB interface) to a BX-24 so I
get decode the NMEA sentences coming from the GPS.
I can do that without any problems with older GPS equi...

I'm looking for a BasicX interface to a GPS unit (Gamin etrex venture)
to read the NMEA codes. My understanding is that there are various
NMEA 0183 sentences tha...

You should just be able to talk to it using a serial connection. I think
it's 4800 baud.
I have one of the Parallax GPS units and there are two modes. The normal
mode just send...

Just a thought- you might want to try a GPS receiver to get an
accurate speedo indication. Granted, it's a little harder coding an
odometer, but it can be done. T...
