Hi
My new ICOM MA-510TR outputs AIS data via pins 7 (+ve NMEA) and 8 (-ve NMEA) to my plotter. They are the only pins used. It works fine.
My Yakker is powered from the battery (12V and GND connections) and also has AIS pin 7 to the Rx connection and AIS pin 8 to GND connection (so battery GND AND pin 8 to GND connection on Yakker) . It works fine.
BUT ... when I connect them both into 7 and 8 together only the plotter works and I no longer see any AIS sentences coming out from the Yakker to my tablet.
I thought NMEA could have several listeners. Am I wrong?
Will also contact Yakker but has anyone seen similar?
