Hey, thanks for saying you can see what I am tryin to do, the PDF tell me we have

Baud Rate 38.4 K

Data Bits* 8

Parity* None

Stop Bits* 1

Flow Control * no

But no informatoin on the start bit, but you said there has to be one.

Sorry If it looks messy, been out of development for decades, working alone on this. Mucho mucho thanks for your help FVM

I see what you mean, we may get $...G......P..G....................G..A

instead of $GPGGA
