The new verion has a bug and the below error is shown the bat file is executed.
"Unable to access jar file2010-gndcclient-java3.jar"
Java needs to be started manually, double click on the jar file or runjava -jar
GNDClient.jar. The final version will be available next week from the MASAT
Team.
Someone might find this interesting.

One of the really impressive things I've been able to do with the virtual WinXP
under Win7---running old DOS programs that use hardware comm ports 1 or 2 with
TNCs! It works wonderfully. (Seems like I tried it with DOSBOX without any
luck...)

I think this has something to do with "GPS Time" vs "Earth Time".
IIRC, GPS time doesn't take into account the Leap Seconds that have been
added to Earth time since the first GPS satellites have been launched. I
think some of the newer receivers can compensate for this, but I'm not sure.
It's
Well the most likely explanation would seem to be related to your GPS
display routine. If you are getting accurate position information the
timing from the satellites must be within a few nanoseconds. The satellite
time currently differs from UTC by plus 15 seconds because UTC is retarded

I'll take a shot at this:
You can, by SatPC32 settings, limit the movement to 90 deg elevation.
That will prevent what many of us call "180 flip mode" or some
variant.
Now to limit to 85 deg?? I bet if you use a setting of either time
interval (increase it...) or Position change (increase it) yo
Scott,
No problem, unless you want to run it in full screen or graphics mode. WIN7
does not fully support DOS programs in full screen mode. However, there are
a couple of ways around that. You can run it in a virtual XP machine. I
have WIN7 Pro, and it is a free download.
However, there is
yes, download a program called dosbox. you can then run the old dos
programs.

The short answer is, the internal GPS clock for position is very
accurate or it could not make to calculations needed as to where you
are at, but there are many factors
that might delay what time it gives to you on a display panel or thr
