The "$M2" has been substituted to indicate which multiplexer port the
data
came from.


Hey, that's a nice feature. Smells like a MiniPlex to me....

Yup, a Bluetooth one at that! I still need to send it in for the AIS port
upgrade though. The MiniPlex has been really nice to have on board. I can
use my PocketPC (running my custom software) to wirelessly interface to my
nav gear. I use it to display and keep a running log of the interesting
NMEA data. At the moment I am using a second bluetooth channel to connect
the AIS receiver to the PocketPC, but I hope that I with the upgrade I can
run everything through the MiniPlex.
