[FARC] GPS connections/computer

[Bob Moroney]

Bill,
Iain KI4HLV informed me by email that the Garmin C330 sports a USB 
interface vs. the good old round serial plug they've had forever on 
other models.  Seems like that little detail probably means you won't be 
able to hook it up to your D700 without a PC and some software in between.
