Hello Everyone,

I searched but couldn't find anything that related to what I was looking for.

I'm looking to buy a TomTom, Bluetooth enabled GPS. Something I can use both in the car and on the boat. Will I be able to use the bluetooth with The CAPN?

I appreicate any assistance.

Timothy

The Capn will receive and use any NMEA 0183 data that is being directed to a COM port
(whether it's a physical 9 pin serial, virtual COM Port, or a Bluetooth connection.)

The GPS has to output NMEA 0183.
