Dan, 
	First off, awesome program! Maybe someday I'll figure it out enough
to use it to it's fullest potential! Until then I'll just be a basic user!
As for your reply, Ok, easy enough. The GPS harness has 4 wires, and here
are the instructions and NMEA info as copied right from page 55 of the
owners manual:

Red to battery pos
Black to batt neg
White to output port of a connected device
Brown to input port of connected device

The manual shows it will work with:
NMEA 0180
NMEA 0182
NMEA 0183 Version 1.5
    Approved sentances
	GPBWC, GPGLL, GPRMB, GPRMC, GPXTE, GPVTG, GPWPL
    Proprietary sentances
	PGRMM (map datum), PGRMZ (altitude), PSLIB (beacon rec. control)
NMEA 0183 version 2.0
     Approved sentances
	GPGGA, GPGLL, GPGSA, GPGSV, GPRMB, GPRMC, GPRTE, GPWPL
     Proprietary sentances
	PGRME (estimated error), PGRMM (map datum), PGRMZ (altitude), PSLIB
(beacon receiver control)	





I added in all the NMEA stuff, because I don't quite understand it. I figure
that if there is something there that jumps out to someone, it might be
useful!!


Thanks,

Adam

Use the programming cable, plus a null modem (and gender changer, if
necessary) between the radio and the GPS.
