Beta test NEMA Live tracking
« on: May 12, 2004, 08:49:34 AM »
I use a Compact flash GPS and tried the NEMA live tracking option.  I got it to work but I did have to keep restarting  the start Livetracking.  I would get an error "error writing to GPS, Check connection to GPS type and Baud rate" .  I have those set to Megellan with the correct comm port and correct baud rate but I still got the error.  After several attempts it will finally work.  
It works really well when running.  One problem is that the direction is allways saying east.  I am using UTM and in zone 11.  
Thank you, great program

Ok, I think I know what the problem is and can fix it.

We'll make a setting for "NMEA only" that is different than Magellan.  Thanks for pointing out the problem!
