SteveL Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 The important thing about GPS units for EQMOD is that they are NMEA compatible.http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Waterproof-GPS-RECEIVER-reciever-USB-Laptop-VISTA-XP_W0QQitemZ110293983699QQihZ001QQcategoryZ139836QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starflyer Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 What are the benefits of using GPS with EQMOD? Is it just for location and time, or does it do anything else?Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkis Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 If you take the mount to different locations, GPS pinpoints the exact coordinates which can then be saved. I think there are about five sites that can be saved. Ron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blinky Posted January 2, 2009 Author Share Posted January 2, 2009 The other good thing is that it will give the exact time as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parallax Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I can add the Garmin etrex Venture to that list as well.Slightly OT, did you know that most (if not all) GPS devices have a 'secret' diagnostics screen?The Garmin Legend & Venture for example have a screen of information showing, amongst other things, the battery voltage and the temperature. Just hold the 'Enter' button down, power up then release the button.Also, the Navman Sat-Nav range (with proper buttons). Same procedure.Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
