[aprssig] D700A gps interface problem

Tue Jul 20 00:26:20 UTC 2004

All of my gps (Deluo, garmin II+ and garmin eMap) all have serial cables to 9-pin DIN that I connect to the Kenwood cable (9-pin DIN to 3-pin sub stereo jack). All the Deluo units work fine this way on the older D700A, but none work with the new one. Both garmins work fine with this setup on both the old and the new.

Well.... I don't hook up a GPS to the D700 serial port.

I plug the GPS into the three pin sub stereo jack 

I plug the PC into the serial jack.

How can the D700 work with plugging the GPS into the serial port?

D700 must have pins 6&7 eithere jumpered
or fully connected for handshaking.  This killed
me for weeks once.  These are the RTS and CTS
handshaking lines I think...  Bob

(Re Deluo GPS not working with a new D700A...)

I wonder if it's not a NMEA thing. Has Kenwood changed anything on the
serial port? RS-232 voltage levels vs TTL? Just a thought...
