Hello,
I was about to test my open plotter setup, and found that as soon as the RPI3 is powered on the GPS receiver integrated inside my VHF Icom 434G loose the position fix and loose GPS tracking.
I removed all hardware add-on on the Pi3 board, and disable the Wifi, but I have the same issue, the issue clearly occur about 5-10s after that I plug power cord on the Rpi3. So same issue when Rpi is running alone.
I have an othe VHF with integrated GPS, Icom 323G, and I got the issue with this one too.
I tried with a completly seperated power supply, as I was using a basic car 5v USB adaptor to power the board for the boat battery, so I tried with a 5V 240VAC adaptor on shore supply, but the issue is the same.
I need to leave a distance of about more that 1.5m from the RPi to the VHF to have the GPS working properly.
does one of you already faced interference issue with Rpi ? do I need to use a batter casing ? (I use a simple plastic casing.
thank you for your feedback
Thierry
