There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Using Table for GPS

In any case the tablet has to have "bluetooth" and GPS capability and your FSX machine has to output a "bluetooth" signal. You need to acquire a couple pieces of software - (1) $$ version of FSUIPC (which contains GPSOUT for FSX); and (2) an aviation mapping software program like "Anywhere Map" or "ForeFlight" (depending on whether the tablet is Android or Ipad). On my android tablet I also have a piece of software that allows the GPS chip to be turned off and use the information stream being sent by GPSOUT for feeding the mapping software.
After you have all that stuff you've got to configure it all to work together. Let me know if you have any more questions.
