The GST-1 GPS Sentence Translator
© 2000-2003 by: Dan Welch - W6DFW and Byon Garrabrant - N6BG The GST-1 (GPS Sentence Translator) is a small, microcontroller based serial device designed to translate Rockwell Binary format, as used in the original DeLorme Earthmate™ (shown to the left) and Sony SkyMap™ serial GPS receivers, to NMEA-0183 version 2.0 sentences. The GST-1 can not be used with PCMCIA card GPS receivers. The NMEA output allows the Earthmate™ GPS to be used with other software mapping programs as well as Amateur Radio Terminal Node Controllers, (TNC's), commonly used for APRS™ positional trackers. Note: If you are using a Palm device you will need an external power cable for the Earthmate which will also power the GST-1. 
Note: The GST-1 is not compatible with the newer Delorme Earthmate (show to the right).
This new Earthmate is USB based, and already supports the NMEA-0183 format.
