Hello all,
I'm sorry if I am posting this in the wrong section, but it seemed to fit I suppose.
I have a Magellan GPS310 (old) receiver that works, I made a data cable for it - but found that it runs very happy at 4800 baud. I don't think my LX200 runs at that baud rate...does it - or can it? I have built a serial "Y" cable to connect both to a laptop.
This past weekend I found that Digital Sky Voice ($29.00) version didn't like or support GPS. What software supports it? (Sure, I can enter my lat/lon in the scope, but this just seems more fun).
Also, I found that when using the PC for "go to" it wasn't as accurate as the scope was. Could this be a slight difference in time between the two devices? Is there a way in Digital Sky Voice to sync the time of the PC to the scope?
Clear skies, (though not tonight in St. Louis)
