Hello, trying to get som gps speed information sendt over the canbus.
Canbus int okay, and I get the information form the gps as vel.
I'm new at this, does somebody understand my fault here?

the error message is:
Arduino: 1.6.11 (Windows 8.1), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Uno"
CAN_send:19: error: cannot convert 'TinyGPSSpeed::kmph' from type 'double (TinyGPSSpeed::)()' to type 'byte {aka unsigned char}'
byte spd (gps.speed.kmph);
^
exit status 1
cannot convert 'TinyGPSSpeed::kmph' from type 'double (TinyGPSSpeed::)()' to type 'byte {aka unsigned char}'
This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.
thanks
