It has been reported in another forum that the HP-1 is not compatible with any GPS unit that uses a mini-USB connector to output data. This includes the entire Garmin line.
The information was relayed by someone who spoke to a Uniden service rep via telephone.
I am still awaiting delivery of a mini adapter so I can run some tests, but I believe Uniden's person might have been mistaken. Uniden does not provide a GPS cable, but the HP-1 does come with a USB cable that is regular USB at one end (to connect to a PC) and mini-USB at the other (to connect to the radio). My plan is to try to use the USB cable to connect the HP-1 directly to my Garmin GPS and see what happens.
The experiment could fail without an actual GPS cable, which could be wired in a particular way. I will report back in a few days (the adapter will take a while to get here).
