The Adafruit breakout board looks very appealing. I also already own
several Trimble Resolution T's and something I've been wondering about for
a while is whether there is any downside, difficulties or problems with
mounting a bare GPS receiver board inside a computer case. If there are
problems, would enclosing it in a shielded enclosure ameliorate those
problems? Has anyone on the list done this?
Thanks,
Thomas Valerio
