Have GPSr. Need software.
Posted: 11 December 10 9:01 pm
I have a device that communicates with the satellites. It gives me my current coordinates. Sadly I am not l33t enough to understand what direction I need to walk in just by knowing my current coordinates.
So at the least, I need software that will talk to the GPSr (it talks in NMEA 0183) and also give me an arrow that tells me what direction to walk in. Preferably something free. (If it does extra things like allow me to keep track of many caches at once, that would also be cool, but it's not absolutely necessary.)
Suggest me something.
Anything that runs on Windows XP will be fine. I geocache with my laptop anyway.
This is the device/GPSr in question.
Yes, I know, this makes me seem terribly lazy. But Google is turning up too many results, most of which are full of jargon that I don't understand/do things that I'm not sure I want.
