Also.... how do you like that antenna?

You create a virtual com with GpsGate and then set streetdeck to use this new com.

I like the antenna and get good strength, even better than with the receiver on the dash, I just hate the MMCX or whatever that connection is on the Holux. Any movement will disconnect the cable and it's really fragile like it could break anytime. The antenna doesn't seem to help my cell reception when connected and I don't use the wifi (I use EVDO) but I like the clean look and can hide the GPS receiver. I already had a hole in my roof from a factory sirius setup which I used.

So.... I have to wait for the next version of SD for this fix? That really sux considering its SD causing the corrupt data in the first place.

Man, I am glad I spent the big $ for my front end!

Well, I think I have solved this. Didnt see it before, but Fanson GPSGate has a $13 version. I am using this now.

Yep, I use the Express version also and it's been working fine.
