Archives?

Does Stormtrack keep any archives? I've been having a bit of trouble with my notebook computer related to the USB ports, and have to reconfig to another port using GPSGate Delorme, etc - to share ports. In an old post I detailed the method I used. Right now I can't figure out how I configured Gpsgate to use a particular hardware USB/Com port - but I'm thinking it must have been configured using Delorme's USB to Serial driver - but I can't find that either. My old instructs would explain it I believe. Anyone know of the archive or the old thread discussion on this subject?

Bill, I don’t have the archives answer for you, but would this serial emulation driver be of help to you?

Here is one for Delorme.....

The way I do it is, start street atlas first and get a signal, then right click the emulator and hit "ports." Configure all ports to NMEA....I have Com 2, 5, and 6.

If you have your emulator on "Auto-Start", make sure it's stopped, because it seems to screw everything up and not work.

Then hit "Start" on the emulator, go into GR3 (or wherever) hit start GPS. I use Com 5 for it, and then do the same for Spotter network (Com 6).

I had to mess around with my USB ports to find the right one, because it won't work unless I have my GPS on the USB port on the back of my laptop.
