I have a vague memory that UI-View does not start tracking your location
until you have moved away from your starting location?

Hello ¨C I have a very confounding problem.
I have a Sony laptop with Win 10 Pro, 8GB ram & an i3
I am using a Microsoft GPS that came with Streets & Trips 2006.
GPS works very well and is spitting out
GPGGA
GPGSA
GPRMC
GPGSV
Sentences every 1-2 seconds. I am able to read the stream from a Putty terminal.
From: APRS101
NMEA Data APRS recognizes raw ASCII data strings conforming to the NMEA 0183 Version 2.0 specification, originating from navigation equipment such as GPS and LORAN receivers.
It is recommended that APRS stations interpret at least the following NMEA Received Sentence types:
[ GGA ] Global Positioning System Fix Data
[ GLL ] Geographic Position, Latitude/Longitude Data
[ RMC ] Recommended Minimum Specific GPS/Transit Data
[ VTG ] Velocity and Track Data
[ WPT ] Way Point Location
I have the GPS on Com5 and have the setup pointed at it. In the setup I have 4800 baud, Com5 and GPS enabled all selected.
I open the GPS Input to see my position and see no data. When I choose: Update My Location, I get an error window: GPS data is currently invlaid
I am also using Winlink on this same computer and am able to use & send position reports using this GPS
I have been looking around the application to see if there is another setting somewhere that I missed. I cannot seem to find anything though.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
