(2023-01-11, 04:56 PM)Sea-and-Sea Wrote: Boat is tied up but the direction/heading in OpenCPN keep changing, from any direction to any  It seems random, but i cant figure out why.  I see i have some duplicated items in the Data Browser and wonder if this could be part of the problem?  

I'm attaching my Data Browser data here in the hope that someone can spot my error please.




Any ideas please?

course over ground could be because the GPS is not moving, sometimes I´ll get a COG when stationary, though usually it´s Null. 
Were does  .Heading come from?  Looks like your AIS, does it have a compass?
