"Does not function"
Version: Easy GPS Tester 1
Pros
There are no pros, it doesn't work.
Cons
Downloaded 3 different times, fully installed and uninstalled each time. Will not run at all, it says "Component tabctl32.ocx or one of it's components not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid." This happens with every installation and every time I attempt to run it.
Summary
Worthless unless the proper files are included in the download.

Version: Easy GPS Tester 1

Found my GPS (RoyalTek).

The lat/lon were off by two decimal points. A value of 40.01 was shown as 4001.

"Can't find my Garmin eTrex HC"
Version: Easy GPS Tester 1
Cons
I installed the Easy GPS Tester and the USB drivers from the Garmin site. I rebooted, hooked up the GPS and started the program. I clicked the Auto Detect button and it scanned Com1 and Com2-15 which do NOT exist! No mention of any USB ports! Not worth the price!

"Odd indeed"
Version: Easy GPS Tester 1
Pros
Small program, easy to use, BUT...
Cons
It wouldn't detect my Garmin Rino 120 on my computer. I could find my GPS using "Mapsource" on Serial Port 9. In this software, not even Auto Detect could find my Garmin. Would have liked to have seen what info it could have found.

"Does what it says on the tin!"
Version: Easy GPS Tester 1
Pros
I was having trouble getting my GPS to work - the software I was trying to use it with just kept saying that the device didn't exist. Easy GPS Tester breaks the problem down into three stages - COM port found, device found on COM port, device is a GPS. It turned out that although the COM port existed no device could be found - my serial cable was faulty. I replaced this and Easy GPS Tester found the GPS straight away and gave me all of the settings I needed to use. Very simple, but did the job.
Cons
Interface isn't the most beautiful in the world! :-)
