You can connect multiple items to one NMEA output. Of course there is
some limit, but it depends on the load each single item poses on the bus.
On my ship I have the NMEA output of the GPS linked to the autopilot,
the mode-S transponder (now I can chase the airliners away from my
ship), and the fuel flow computer so it can use the actual GS to
calculate the remaining maximum possible distance with the present
amount of fuel remaining by the current consumption.

| Subject: | Jeppesen weather |
To my irritation Jeppesen have changed their system of
offering free weather services, screwing up the two bits
that I had used on the new Europa Club Weather Links page.
It seems that you need to access them via a Facebook
account, which does not lend itself to a links page. Can I
ask whether any of you know of a way round this or any
good Icing Conditions forecast service to replace the
Jeppesen one?

This website has Jeppesen ice forecasts by level. And it still works.

Garmin products typically allow up to 3 "listeners" connected to the
NMEA
output. It tells you this in the data for their products.

Frans,
Thank you, Roland has kindly e-mailed me the instructions and other

on the FF1.
You have raised another Question I was going to ask the list,
To create a NMEA-buss is it simply to pick up the feed from the

to feed the NMEA-buss and connect the other devices too it? in other
words
will 1 NMEA feed other devices from a single feed?

I have it and I'm satisfied with it. I use two float type senders, one
swiveling into the main tank and the other in the reserve. I have set up
the two systems as two independant tanks, and of course both are
consumed equally, until the bottom of the "saddle" is reached. This
gives insight when to switch from main to reserve, and also offers some
redundancy during the time the tank level is above the saddle. If both
tanks indicate the same level then all should be well. If one float
sticks or sinks the levels disagree and invite the pilot to investigate.
The fuel flow part also works perfectly. I have a 914 so I have two flow
senders, the FF1 is able to substract the return flow from the total
fuel flow so it gives a very accurate value. What's more: connected to
the ships NMEA-buss it calculates the time and distance remaining on the

Dear David,
I did not previously express interest but would like to do so now. Please
book me in for a single room.

Subject: Europa-List: French Chateau Fly Out - CONFIRMATION NEEDED
The French Chateau Fly out is scheduled for 21-24
September. and has attracted a lot of interest. Earlier
this year I had a series of computer disasters and not
only my old computer but also the brand new replacement
blew up. In checking through what I have salvaged of the
replies expressing interest, I am concerned that some may
have fallen down the hole in the ether that engulfed my
computers! Can I ask all of you who have previously
expressed an interest to confirm to me now, preferably by
sending a copy of your original email.
Regards, David Joyce, G-XSDJ
