Please try use Stellarium 0.90.0.16412 (0.18.2.12) or any later version - we refactored the code for GPS support and I've tested it by the similar GPS dongle without problem.

Hint: F4 -> DSO -> uncheck "Use additional names for DSO"

Just enable HiPS survey for the Moon

I meant geographic coordinates. Juno is not far away and horizontal parallax will be introduce the error for equatorial coordinates. Where you see J2000.0 epoch for MPC coordinates?
