hi all,
i have a gps module which i have already interfaced with pc via max232 but still i need antenna connected to get lat/long from it, i just wanted to know that is it necessary to connect the antenna ground with module ground?
if you can see in the image attached, at the connector end there is a outer cover (golden) and inside that the main antenna wire. so is it necessary to connect the outer cover to ground? i have already tried connecting only the inside wire with module with no success.
kindly advice
thanks
