SKM53 to Nokia 5110 84x48 LCD

Other Hardware Displays

Hi.
I need sketch to display values from a SKM53 GPS to a Nokia 5110 84x48 in order to study how to print this values.
I was trying so far to compile two working sketchs with NO success =(
Can someone help ?
Thnx in advance

Hmmm...

I dont know if this is the BEST WAY... but is working !!!

      return true;

  return 0;
}

void gpsdump(TinyGPS &gps)
{
  //byte month, day, hour, minute, second, hundredths;
  gps.get_position(&lat, &lon);
  LAT = lat;
  LON = lon;
  {
    feedgps(); // If we don't feed the gps during this long routine, we may drop characters and get checksum errors
  }
}

Hmmm.. i don't remember who originally wrote the two part of codes...sorry..
but one thing is sure...its NOT MINE !!!

I am also using the SKM53, and I am reading from the serial port. The serial stream seems to have some errors but all the data is being received. Is there any resistors or other circuits that need to be connected between the Arduino (UNO for me) and the GPS module?
