Re: OpenCPN Version 5.1.708 RC2 Test

I had exactly the same problem with an Arduino acting as barometer. Changing the update to 5 sec instead of 10 fixed the problem.

Re: RMC messages lost in NMEA stream

Yes, I noted those few corrupted RMC messages as well as other more obvious erroneous sentences such as "<0x0F>#" on several occurancies.
