[OZAPRS] Motorola 8-Channel GT Plus Oncore GPS

[Andrew McDade]

Gday Kev,
 
Its pretty easy to knock up the 5volt regulator and max232 chip on some
vero board. But Norm ,VK5ZAH here in adelaide has designed a PCB daughter
board, which makes construction a lot simpler and neater. His contact
details are - Norm Rosenzweig  nrosie at mail.mdt.net.au

Hi kev,
 
Yes the Oncores are a very good GPS solution for trackers etc. I have
several in use here are the do work a treat. Looks as though you'll have
to source an antenna from somewhere, the Oncores use a hard to come by osx
type connector though. We also have a bloke here is SA, Norm , VK5ZAH who
has designed a piggy back type daughter board for these.This provides the
5 volt regluator and the max232 chip for the TTL to rs232 conversion etc..
 
Good luck with it.
 
Regards .. Andrew .. VK5EX

Hi Guys,
 
Motorola 8-Channel GT Plus Oncore GPS on ebay:
 
 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem
<http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3020594887&category
=4668> &item=3020594887&category=4668
 
price seem good, anybody know if these are any good, says that it outputs
NMEA at 4800baud. So should work good with a TMD700.
