DGPS on Garmin GPSMAP 64 using NTRIP on Android device?

Recently the ordnance of survey in my country set up a free service providing differenctial corrections over internet (NTRIP).

 

Sounds like great news to me since I am using my GPS mostly under forest canopies that does cut out the SBAS (WAAS/EGNOS) corrections most of the time.

 

With really good differential corrections over NTRIP I hope to be able to get consistent sub 1m accuracy even in the forrest.

 

Setting this up should in theory consist of getting a USB to serial cable (that Garmin sells) and then connect that to a serial to bluetooth adapter that can communicate with the NTRIP service on my Android smartphone.

 

I already got the Lefbure NTRIP client working properly on my smartphone. What is left is the "plumbing" (to connect Garmin USB->Serial->Bluetooth->NTRIP on Smartphone)

 

Is there anyone that has done this exercise and got it working? Does & donts?

 

Brgs,

Vgurra
