New Nexus 7 with xc soar.

I use a K6BT serial to bluetooth converter. Simply plug it into the serial
port of the 302 and select the K6BT driver in XCSoar with default baud rate.
You also have to pair the devices (just once) - on the Android, select
Bluetooth, scan, select the K6BT and enter the password which comes with the
converter. It was all simple and straight forward and works great.

Another pilot on the airport built a similar device from a kit. The K6BT
was not cheap, but it was worth it to me to get rid of the hassles of
carrying a laptop to get my igc file.

Thanks for that info. It sounds very good. What I meant by the
Bluetooth

question - I should probably have said download, not upload. I want to
be

able to extract igc files from an approved logger, which will be
connected

to a GliderGuider PNA. Would I be able to use Bluetooth to transfer
files

into the Nexus from the PNA?



I don't know, to be honest... It could work but I won't promise anything




Why don't you just connect the logger to the Nexus 7?

Dan, can you tell us what setup you are using on the 302 side to make it
accessible via Bluetooth? I'd be highly interested in avoiding the
serial-to-usb device that is normally necessary to communicate with a 302,
together with the cables involved.
