SOLVED: Help needed for a noobie using a Arduino "Micro" and a GPS receiver

Hi all, I am having problems trying to figure this all out. I do not understand the terminology of Arduino.

I purchased my GPS receiver from GPS_Module_With_Enclosure__SKU_TEL0094_-DFRobot

I have wired it to:

GPS module ==> Arduino
GND ==> GND
TX ==> Digital pin (D4)
RX ==> Digital pin (D3)
Vcc ==> 5V

I have tried this code:

#include <TinyGPS++.h>
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

static const int RXPin = 4, TXPin = 3;
static const uint32_t GPSBaud = 9600;

// The TinyGPS++ object
TinyGPSPlus gps;

// The serial connection to the GPS device
SoftwareSerial ss(RXPin, TXPin);

const char UBLOX_INIT[] PROGMEM = {
  0xB5, 0x62, 0x06, 0x08, 0x06, 0x00, 0x64, 0x00, 0x01, 0x00, 0x01, 0x00, 0x7A, 0x12, //(10Hz)
};

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(57600);//57600
  ss.begin(GPSBaud);

  for (int i = 0; i < sizeof(UBLOX_INIT); i++) {
    ss.write( pgm_read_byte(UBLOX_INIT + i) );
    delay(5);
  }

  Serial.println(F("DeviceExample.ino"));
  Serial.println(F("A simple demonstration of TinyGPS++ with an attached GPS module"));
  Serial.print(F("Testing TinyGPS++ library v. ")); Serial.println(TinyGPSPlus::libraryVersion());
  Serial.println(F("by Mikal Hart"));
  Serial.println();
}

void loop()
{
  // This sketch displays information every time a new sentence is correctly encoded.
  while (ss.available() > 0)
    if (gps.encode(ss.read()))
      displayInfo();

  if (millis() > 5000 && gps.charsProcessed() < 10)
  {
    Serial.println(F("No GPS detected: check wiring."));
    while(true);
  }
}

void displayInfo()
{
  Serial.print(F("Location: ")); 
  if (gps.location.isValid())
  {
    Serial.print(gps.location.lat(), 6);
    Serial.print(F(","));
    Serial.print(gps.location.lng(), 6);
  }
  else
  {
    Serial.print(F("INVALID"));
  }

  Serial.print(F("  Date/Time: "));
  if (gps.date.isValid())
  {
    Serial.print(gps.date.month());
    Serial.print(F("/"));
    Serial.print(gps.date.day());
    Serial.print(F("/"));
    Serial.print(gps.date.year());
  }
  else
  {
    Serial.print(F("INVALID"));
  }

  Serial.print(F(" "));
  if (gps.time.isValid())
  {
    if (gps.time.hour() < 10) Serial.print(F("0"));
    Serial.print(gps.time.hour());
    Serial.print(F(":"));
    if (gps.time.minute() < 10) Serial.print(F("0"));
    Serial.print(gps.time.minute());
    Serial.print(F(":"));
    if (gps.time.second() < 10) Serial.print(F("0"));
    Serial.print(gps.time.second());
    Serial.print(F("."));
    if (gps.time.centisecond() < 10) Serial.print(F("0"));
    Serial.print(gps.time.centisecond());
  }
  else
  {
    Serial.print(F("INVALID"));
  }

  Serial.println();
}

on the serial monitor I see "No GPS detected: check wiring."

if i put my scope on pin D4 I do see a signal.

This is the pin out referance I am going by:

can anyone see what I am doing wrong?

Thanks
Rick

For what ever reasoning I moved the TX to pin 8 and RX to pin 7 and now i get data. (and adjusted the software)

can anyone tell me why

Thanks
Rick
