Help with iPAQ 3600 and S & T 2005 with Pharos GPS

Aug 5, 2005 3:52AM PDT

I have used S&T 2002 thru 2004 with good success with my Garmin GPS II plus. The Garmin Rx worked through the serial port cradle of the iPAQ. I recently purchased S&T 2005 with the GPS receiver hoping to use it with my iPAQ 3600. I have a Radio Shack charger adapter(Cat No 29-948)with a power adapter (Cat No 29-9510). The charger adapter has a USB type "B" female connector. I have made a Type "A" male to "B" female adapter so that the Pharos receiver will interface.

Unfortunately, the Pharos 360 receiver didn't get power from the USB connector I fixed the power situation by modifying the Charger adapter. Now, I cannot get data from the Receiver. The receiver works fine with my desktop computer!

I would appreciate any help that someone can give me regarding this GPS combo!
