How does GPS work with GRLevel3?

[Lou Ruh]

The grlevelx forum at http://www.grlevelx.com/owners/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=199&p=11300&hilit=gps+com4+com5#p11300 shows that only COM1 through COM9 are supported. Something about older versions of Windows performing very poorly with COM port numbers over 9.

I did see something in the forum about GR2AE supporting up to COM32 in a recent release but it does not appear that this feature was put into GRLevel3.

just a side note: the new sprint 598 sierra wireless card has a built in GPS that works great if you haven't gotten one already.

Good day,

Cool...glad to hear...now the only question is......

.....how many cores you gonna punch now?

LOL, I still am thinking about that poor little HHR last year ...

Above: HHR Rental (2008) ... Some glass issues were from May 23 wedge inflow north of Quinter, the "finishing off" process was hail on May 26 near Pratt - I was able to do it all on one claim!

Very cool ... Good to know!

Right now I got all my software on both my big 2005 Vaio and a little Acer Netbook, which - to my suprise - Runs all the navigation (Delorme LT-40 for ultra-mobile PC) and GR Level 3 perfectly with the Sierra card and LT-40 USB puck.

Heck, this little netbook can be suction-cup / sticky-pod mounted (with a platform) to the windshield / dash - No more Jotto desk needed!!

The laptop bag for this net-book fits INSIDE the extra pouch on the laptop bag for my 2005 Sony Vaio laptop!

Aaaah, the art of large-scale integration (smaller and smaller computers).

As does the 587U Sierra card, but the 598 sounds like it's new, and likely better.
