I had an old President Lincoln 10m radio in a truck that when I turned it on it would knock out my GPS signal on a handheld unit mounted on the dash, I ended up getting a higher gain external antenna. After a while the 10m just quit transmitting completely, I never knew what was causing it but mayb...

So I had some free time and dug out a GPS/compass unit for one of my fathers autonomous drone flight controllers, and I was able to configure it to spit out the NMEA messages, I also had it spitting out at a rate of 10hz, and 115200 baud just for funzies. They use the Ublox 6, 7 and 8 chips on most...

You might need to plug that into the Ublox u-center and configure it and then confirm that yours is sending those NMEA messages. Its been a while since I've tinkered with a Ublox but I might see if I...

So, the question still is: Can we have USB-ETH converter attached to use LAN ? If so, Any aditional packet needs to be installed...

Link to a handy MMDVMCAL how-to in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1309&p=5410&hilit=mmdvmcal#p5410

Are pins 38 and 40 connected between the MMDVM and the PI? Failed to Init usually means they're not.
