I have been successfully running a Garmin GPS 76 map into my iBook using GPSNavX.
This year I put a new DSC VHF radio onboard and split off the GPS output to go to the radio as well as the computer. Problem is, when the radio is connected, the computer can not hear the GPS. If I phyically disconnect the radio the computer is fine again. The radio has no problem with the computer connected or not connected.
Has anyone else experienced this? Do I need a NMEA Amplifier/Expander?
