Thanks Brooke and SJ for the quick response. SJ: Unfortunately, I can't use the WinOncore12 program as it runs on Windows. Recently I shut down my last Windows box and I am running all Linux.
The problem is that I was using TACC32 Software from CNS Systems to control my Motorola Receivers and the GPSCon software to control my HPZ3801A Boxes. When I tried running these programs using Wine(the Linux Windows emulator) I had no luck. So I decided to do a re-write of my older software: "darkgps" to support the M12 and the HP stuff. Not a simple task since the Windows programs are very sophisticated and I want the extra features. Stuff like plots of receiver parameters, EFC voltages(for the HP units) etc. are really nice to have. So now, find myself in the middle of a rather large software project. I have access to a 12 channel M12 a few UT units and a few "Basic" units. The Basic unit was sending out the "Bk" command and I did not know how to process it. BTW, if anyone here wants to try out the beta please let me know. There are two programs, a "c" code shared memory connector and a perl program that does everything else. Full source included. I tried to write this one as cleanly as possible with plenty of comments.
