VK-162 G-Mouse USB GPS Dongle Navigation Module
Feature
VK-162 GPS support for windows and for linux system, not for android and IOS system
The USB GPS is a great, easy, and an awesome solution for travelers.It works anywhere around the world. After you download the maps for the country traveling, it will pin point exactly where you are without having to pay any service.
For amateur radio operators who need accurate timing for digital communications, this is a unit that will help synchronize the timing for those modes.
This device is extremely accurate. It usually takes a couple of seconds to acquire the initial fix, followed up shortly by acquiring additional satellites for a more precise fix.

I’m using this USB GPS with a Windows computer to capture time, altitude, and location data for my telescope setup. I use NINA to read the GPS signal from the dongle. To get it to connect to a COM port, I need to disconnect all other serial devices first. Once the GPS establishes a COM port connection, I can reconnect the other devices. After NINA retrieves the location data, it usually only takes the GPS a minute or two to find enough satellites for a reliable reading.

Plug it in. Go. Shows up as a USB serial port and then from there, it's just your typical GPS pod.

Windows didn't use the correct driver. It was listed as a virtual port in device manager, but it didn't work. It does not come with documentation. I saw a video that said to use U-Center 2, but that didn't work either. I contacted the seller and they said to use U-Center, which included the driver. Now it works great. Accurate even to the which side of the house I'm in.Seems like a good value.Support responded promptly on weekdays.

Didn't come with much in the way of instruction but if you are at least a win10 / 11 user it was detected, and up and running after acquiring a signal in under a minute and in use by two radio programs that use the GPS for position/time signal. Did not seem to be affected by the radio transmitting nearby.

I received the product in a clear plastic bag (well pack and protected). The USB Onyehn VK-162 G-Mouse works wonders. It was easy to plug and play, I did some online search and found the right configuration that it almost made it work right if the box. I use it indoors and it picks a lot of satellites (fills more than 15) and you can actually see it changing coordinates as it adjusts to pinpoint the nearest location. It's accurate (Long,Lat) as close as a few houses... to a few blocks near me location. The long-lat coordinates changes as it try to get closer and closer to my location. Some times it pinpoints the houses on the other side of my physical location but... for me that's not a problem as I don't need it for GPS accuracy but for other purposes so it could be a city off but as long as it gives the right time zone it works for me. For GPS accuracy I'd use my phone LOL. but it's decent and it works. I don't think it supports PPS. But it does provide time and coordinates (long - lat).

I was having numerous problems with Delorme Topo NA on my Windows 10 laptop (crashes, position not updating, inability to locate, etc). I finally decided to try replacing the USB GPS mouse with this one and everything instantly worked properly. No more crashes, position is accurate and obtained quickly.I had improperly been blaming the Delorme software for years, when I must have had a bad USB GPS mouse.No special driver was needed, windows 10 recognized it and installed the proper drivers automatically.

I was unable to find drivers to load this to an old Windows 7 machine. Unfortunately that Win7 notebook was my field notebook for Ham Radio activations with FT8. There are various links suggested that are no-longer active. So it was a dead end. It installed and worked fine on a windows 10 laptop. I'd NOT suggest this for anything earlier that Windows 10.
