Title: AIS Receiver
#5
Yes you can connect your GPS to the NASA AIS receiver via the thin blue wire. Connect the GPS transmit out to the wire and ground to common ground. Now the downside is the AIS receiver is going to pass only the GPRMC message through. So you willl lose satellite, route and waypoint info from the GPS and hence to GPSNavX. So I advise against it.

If you have dozens of targets in a busy harbor that will certainly push GPSNavX hard on a G3. Tiger should improve the situation with it's new improved rendering model.

In verison 3.28 GPSNavX had several things changed to improve performance. So I would give it a try and report back to us about GPSNavX GPS and AIS performance on a G3.
