Did you slide the mode switch to the PC/Mac position on the XGPS 150?

You need to create a virtual serial port in the Bluetooth System Preferences. Restart GPSNavX or MacENC. Rate 4,800, Type can be "Other" in the GPSNavX/MacENC GPS panel Settings drawer.

I still don't like the XGPS 150 for Mac use as the virtual port is only available when the GPS has a fix. Better choices out there like the BU-353 USB GPS.
