Hi

I am using the sample code for the gps-tinyshield (TinyShield_GPS.ino)

It seems that the GPS is recognized but the output it is only *'s.

Sats HDOP Latitude  Longitude  Fix  Date       Time     Date Alt    Course Speed Card  Distance Course Card  Chars Sentences Checksum
          (deg)     (deg)      Age                      Age  (m)    --- from GPS ----  ---- to London  ----  RX    RX        Fail
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**** **** ********* ********** **** ********** ******** **** ****** ****** ***** ***   *******  ****** ***   63    0         0 

I changed the bauds to 4800 and 9600 and same output.

Any idea of what else I need to change?

Thanks

It could be not receiving a signal. Try it outside where the gps is not obstructed by buildings.

I tried but not much of luck. I live in high density area, so I will try to go someplace else and try.

Also, any idea of how to build an antena. A simple wire would do? Any specific length?
