Which wind sentences do you get? I have a similar problem with an old
anemometer whose wind sentences are not understood by the TackTick
repeaters. I use MaxSea on the computer to translate to newer nmea
sentences, and resend them to the TackTicks. If CNP cannot do that, it
should be fairly easy to program the translation.

Well, I have experience with the NDC4, but I don't know your navman
repeater. What kind of input does it require? RS232 or nmea? Which speed?
How did you connect it to the NDC4? I think the "ISO OUT 0" works at 38400
baud by default (it is meant to be coupled with "OPTO IN 0" to connect an
RS232 socket, to connect to a PC instead of the USB cable), so if your
repeater is a standard nmea device at 4800 baud, you should plug it on
"ISO
OUT 1" (and check its speed with the )
BTW, I couldn't get the NDC4's filters to work, until I tried to connect
it
to the PC with a serial cable instead of USB. This was pretty baffling. Do
you have the same issue?
