Re: PC Software and GPS recommendations
FYI, I just contacted Delorme about bluetooth and usb and found out the following tidbits:
- the LT-20 (part of the bundle posted above) does not have a bluetooth adapter and that their BlueLogger is the only bluetooth choice right now.
- the BlueLogger does not support USB
- if you want an external antenna, you have to use the BlueLogger receiver
- the newer receivers are all NMEA compliant so they should work with other vendors' software if that software talks NMEA
- the delorme mapping software should work with any NMEA 0183 2.0 or higher receiver
So it sounds like you need to go all bluetooth or all USB if you want to use one of their bundles.
But, according to their sales guy statements (above) it should be possible to use the Delorme software with the Garmin 60CSx. If this actually works, I'd spend the extra money to get the better receiver and cope with the extra wires somehow.
Any chance you can verify their claims that the 6.0 Delorme software will work with the Garmin for realtime navigation????
Thanks.
