    • Works fine on Windows/RPi, doesn't support simultaneous Glonass and GPS
Review Image by ZEric ZEric
Review Image by ZEric ZEric
Review Image by ZEric ZEric
Summary: it works on Windows 10 and raspberry Pi, and is reasonably sensitive. It will take some time and technical ability to get it going as there is no included documentation. Glosnass can not be used simultaneously with GPS/WAAS so it's of limited use for most. Build quality is okay, don’t abuse it and you will be fine. ----------- This review is long and aimed at technical users. The VK172 does not include any instructions, software, drivers, etc. It utilizes the u-blox 7020 chip and outputs a stream of standard NMEA-0183 messages readable by most GPS software. When utilizing u-blox u-center software, special configuration messages (ubx) can be sent/received (also possible without the software, just not as easy). For initial testing I used Windows 10. After plugging it in, it was assigned a serial comm port without needing to install any drivers. Others have reported needing to install Windows drivers so it depends on what drivers you already have installed. I used device manager to find the correct comm port number, then used PuTTY terminal software to connect to it. It immediately showed the NMEA sentences streaming by, it didn't matter what the baud rate was set to, although 4800 is the NMEA standard. I next downloaded the UBLOX "u-center for windows" software to verify functionality. Once connected, I saw satellites start to appear and within a couple of minutes I had a position lock and the blue led started to regularly flash. This was indoors away from windows. After a while it picked up a WAAS signal and was receiving 8 to 12 GPS satellites. After 20 minutes or so I felt the device, it was barely warm, a good sign. I then tested with Google Earth in realtime GPS mode and it worked just fine. The following morning I tried it again at the same location, it took nearly 5 minutes to get a 3D fix. Part of this may be day vs night, as night time RF signals get less interference or perhaps it didn’t retain the ephemeris data. The PDOP at night was around 2, during the day it was over 3-4 at the same location. When moving the receiver close to a window, eventually two WAAS satellites were picked up and several more satellites. The daytime PDOP near the window eventually improved to 1.3-1.8. A full cold start (initiated through u-center) in this location took 5 minutes and 20 seconds to get an initial fix. A hot start took less than 3 seconds. A warm start took 31 seconds. Although it’s advertised as working with Glonass satellites, it’s not too useful in reality. When looking at the configuration through the u-center software, it appears Glonass isn’t enabled. The u-blox 7 documentation states that either GPS/SBAS/QZSS or Glosnass can be enabled, but not both. After unchecking “enable” for all other systems, I could enable Glonass and it did work. GPS is generally better than Glosnass, so the only advantage would be if it receives both simultaneously. Since it doesn’t, there is little point in bothering with Glosnass. After playing with Windows, I did a quick test on a raspberry Pi 3. No driver was needed and a serial port was created as /dev/ttyACM0 which I connected to using putty and I saw the expected NMEA strings streaming by. Gpsd also seemed to work after a bit of effort. I next took a look inside. The notable components are the ublox G7020-KT GPS chip, a ft25h04s 4Mbit serial flash, a small battery like component, and the patch antenna (note- the antenna is on the side with the LED so best reception occurs with that side up). The battery (or supercapacitor) is approximately 4.8mm x 1.5 mm, and measured just over 1 volt. The markings are obscured, but I think it's an XH414 which is rechargeable and it's likely only used to retain the ephemeris data for a hot/warm start. The soldering was good, except for the USB connector’s mechanical contact points which had not flowed properly (often an issue due to the connector acting as a heat sink), the signal pins were fine. I touched up the weak solder joints, but not really necessary. Overall a decent unit as long you don’t need Glonass and GPS simultaneously. ... show more

    • Good value, as advertised, not plug and play
When connected, this basically presents as a serial device (COM port on WIndows) that streams NMEA data. Comes in a little plastic package with a label giving the email address to get drivers etc. Email them and they respond within a day. There are drivers and a controller program (u-center) with bewildering complexity. It's not very intuitive. Out of the box it managed GPS fixes fine. It didn't seem to be pulling in GLONASS. I couldn't figure out how to make it do that. Inside an apartment, it struggled to get a fix when connected to my laptop on my desk. I had to get a USB extension cable and put the device by a window to get a consistent fix. Depending on your needs, you might be better off with a GPS that has a built-in cable. The real question is, what good does NMEA data do you? By itself, not much, at least not on a Windows box. Download and install gpscomplete (free trial, paid license) and it will read the NMEA serial data and feed "sensor" data to Windows, for use by Windows Maps, etc. Or, download nmeatime and it will read the NMEA serial data and set your Windows time to the GPS time. But don't expect to be able to do both at the same time, without additional work/software/config. An impressive little device. Works as advertised. Great value for the money. But if you don't know what you're doing, are not comfortable with drivers and serial port configuration and such, this may not give you what you want. ... show more

    • Could not be easier people!
I'm not sure what the complaints on "ease of use" are about. I litterally plugged this in, started OpenCPN, selected the comport with U-blox in the name and started navigating on my boat. I also downloaded a Ublox driver (google "GNSS Sensor Device driver for Windows 10/11 GPSwebshop") following the instructions and you can feed GPS data from this device to windows location services for precise location data in microsoft maps without the need for an internet connection. For the price this unit more than meets expectations. ... show more

    • Works, but needs a USB extension to do so
I bought this as a member of the Mageia Linux Quality Assurance Team to test an update to our gpsd software. I had no experience with using these devices before this, so it is fortunate that the device is essentially plug-and-play once gpsd is installed. I was disappointed at first, because while the device started detecting satellites right away, it did not lock on to any. But after receiving a hint, I connected the device through a USB extension, rather than directly into my laptop's USB port. This put some distance between the device and my laptop, reducing the interference that the laptop was producing, and allowing it to lock on to 8 of the 20 satellites it was detecting. Giving it only 4 stars because while it works OK I believe a dongle should be able to work plugged directly into a port, rather than through an extension. If I had wanted a device with a cord, I wouldn't have purchased a dongle. ... show more

    • Easy install, great value.
Upon receiving this unit, my Windows 10 laptop picked it right up, installed drivers and assigned a com port. No documentation, but none needed. I had to set it outside for a few minutes in order for it to achieve a lock. This is not unusual for a GPS unit that has been shut down and moved a few hundred + miles. It needs to scan for signals and update it's almanac. After about 10 minutes it locked onto 6 satellites and gave a less than 10M position fix. Plenty good enough for me. Once I pointed my amateur radio software (APRSISCE/32) at the correct com port and matched the baud rate, it picked it right up. No issues in keeping the display updated as I did a test drive around the neighborhood. Hard to beat for the price. Quick shipping and delivery using Prime. Would recommend. ... show more
