Works as it should. c Connectors and Adapters

I bought these to use in a timing project. They're a bit slow to "snap" into place despite being in view. FYI they are not for indoor use, they must have a sky view.

Pros
  • Sleek Design
Cons
  • Concise Instructions

works well suitable for accessories and supplies

not the most sensitive receiver. works well with a good view of the sky. do not use with USB3 - and the device, including this one, is plugged into the USB3 port and has enough radio interference that this dongle will not work.

Pros
  • hands free
Cons
  • some bugs

Great for Ham Radio on RPi

Great for getting location and time data on Raspberry Pi. It takes some time to get the initial lock but quickly after that. It currently has a very small opening to the sky and reports a secure 3D lock.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Quality

discontinued item. Drivers are missing

The seller sent a product that was marked as discontinued by the manufacturer without support. Without support, I couldn't get the drivers to get the product running on one of my computers; B. Raspberry Pi, ACEPc, Windows 10 PC.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Empty

Windows 10 CGP/GNSS position sensor

Bought for my Surface Pro 3 - installed automatically. Device manager shows it as Sensors -> ublox 7 GPS/GNSS location sensor. Windows 10 cards found it and was up and running in less than 5 minutes. What a breath of fresh air! No more dealing with an old-school GPS com port and trying to convert it into a location sensor! Also installed it on a Dell 6400 laptop with mixed results. I had to uninstall all the software I was trying to use to convert the GPS communication units. After that it…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Very sensitive to RF interference from nearby electronics.

. Due to related circumstances to a cheap USB OTG adapter, this first lock has been reset multiple times this holiday. This device's case has an annoying bounce ability, and parts of it will shatter if it falls from a height of 4 feet onto a hard floor. At the end of the holiday I couldn't get the device to work at all. When I got home I discovered that one of the leads of one of the diodes had broken out of the circuit board and the glass top of the block. The case of the Christal real-time…

Pros
  • Great for me.
Cons
  • . No instructions.
