I live on a boat, any way to pull GPS data from dishy?
You need to submit a feature request to the OpenCPN developers -- https://github.com/OpenCPN/OpenCPN/issues -- Starlink provides location data in a proprietary undocumented interface. People have figured it though, developed sample code and documented it -- https://github.com/sparky8512/starlink-grpc-tools/blob/main/starlink_grpc.py#L154 It shouldn't be that hard to add Starlink support to OpenCPN but the developers may need Starlink hardware for code development and testing or they may need an active tester capable of running code from github.
