&lt;p&gt;The only problem is, I am not getting GPS activity in Streets and Trips, none what so ever. &amp;nbsp;I sat outside for an hour with my laptop and GPS hooked up, and yes all the right boxes are checked off. &amp;nbsp;Any suggestions out there on why I&amp;#39;m not getting GPS activity?&lt;/p&gt;

1)  Disabled Integrity Checks by using bcdedit.exe (Start &amp;gt; Run &amp;gt; cmd &amp;gt; bcdedit.exe /set nointegritychecks ON

2) Reboot so that the new setting will take effect

3) Install the PL-2303 USB driver found at http://download.pharosgps.com/download/drivers.htm.  It says it&amp;#39;s for the GPS-360 but it&amp;#39;s apparently for both models according to Pharos.

This worked for me on my Vista 32bit Home Premium version.

Those are things you'll want to note in the margins.  I also can't remember if there is SQLCLR examples in that book, but I think there are.  Those examples will not work as written for the 2.0 framework, in the book, because the namespaces have moved, method names and implementations have changed.
