The more I contemplate this issue, the more I feel like setting USBAUTO="false" is just a workaround for a different problem.? This does not happen for Yaesu radios, even those that use the same cp210x converter (my FT891 for example).? For some reason our Icom radios are being detected as a source of PPS for GPSD.? Running dmesg|grep -i tty immediately after connecting the rig will reveal that it is showing up as a GPS source.? Immediately after the cp201x converter is attached to USB0 the next line is pps pps1: source .....? This is USB0 (The Radio) being added to the GPSD daemon.? The real fix is figuring out why this happens and how to stop it.
It is possible to remove a specific device from the GPSD device pool from what I can tell.? Scripting this removal may be a better workaround than simply setting USBAUTO to false.? This seems like it would be a better solution since setting USBAUTO to false seems to indicate that if we boot up our system and then plug in the USB GPS device we would have to reboot for detection.? I need to verify this behavior this weekend.
Any thoughts on this issue?
Thanks,
