Yep, I have the OEM GPS hooked into the GPS port on the radio..

Think I have it running now.. Its in the commands to the Alinco in the
tnc-startup.sys
Trying to find the exact setup for the radio that Xastir likes..
I think I may have it, should know in a day or so of testing (to make
sure it keeps working).
It was getting the GPS data from the radio but not recognizing it as
such and not tracking the mobile with it.

Did about a 12 mile round trip drive today with it on the current test
settings that I have and when I got home my home station had tracked the
trip, so I think its either there, or getting close.

Thanks
