Did you hit pause as Adriano recommended?

Same here, no init strings, a different receiver...still curious...
My Polstar also transmits every 1 second. My Newton 120 runs pretty
slow and doesn't always use 'every' piece data coming down the serial
port 'every' second (I'm assuming, of course). The fact is, there is
about a 5 second delay between screen updates, while tracking (live)
and using my S. Lake Tahoe street map, which (BTW) is 2134x3314 pixels!
So I still find this whole 'too-many-sentences' thing curious.
