GPS Book

[Chopper]

I have just been having a nose around for books on GPS and came across what I think could be a real beauty, I have ordered a copy and cant wait for its delivery.

www.kingsley-hughes.com/books/hacking-gps.asp

I cant help but think that the author was a well known name around this forum a while ago.

I would like to make it very clear that I am in know way associated with this publication in any way.

Getting your head around the NMEA sentences is a good place to start to hack GPSr's I'd say - have a look at this link for the [more] common ones (although bear in mind that it's not NMEA ratified - their version costs $270).

Not that all GPSr's are fully fluent either of course ...

My first thought was WHAT THE !
but when I actually read the link it does sound kind of interesting.

Yeah, ok, maybe it is a little bit geeky

... but half the fun in having these things is seeing what what else you can make them do, or what you can get them to talk to ...
