hello Experts,
I triy to get an Sketch running on a NANO V3 (Clone) which runs perfect on UNO R3
This is a example scetch for reading GPS Data
GPS is working and delivering the right data has been verified with an other tool and shows the same results like running on the UNO.
running the same sketch on Nano deliveres no data
I used the same wiring and pins and changed the TX/RX Pins (Sketch and Hardware) already without success… changing baudrate(s) didnt help either…
I there anything different in SoftwareSerial behaviour on Nano compared to UNO ?
I also tried to run different Examples with the same result… UNO Works - Nano not 
Alos tried to “Google” any infos but after 2 Days searching and try & error I’m exhausted and like to ask the Forum here.
Thanks
This is the example Sketch:

If you had, we would not be looking at code in italic. Please use code tags when posting code on the forum.
