It refers to a 1.5 metre NMEA cable, not NMEA version 1.5. "The 1.5 m NMEA OUT cable has a ferrite clamp attached to ensure EMC conformance." Anyway, take a look at the sentences available in appendix D and compare to the sentences available in the various NMEA standards. All the usual GPS suspects are there as far as I can see, and certainly more than are defined in the NMEA 1.5 standard. GGA in particular is present, and ought to be the key. You probably have what you need already. You should be able to just hook it up to the radio, and make sure the radio is set for 4800 baud input. Leave the grey and the brown wires from the radio disconnected. If you have tried it already, and it didn't work, I would take a look at the configuration options for the RL80CRC display. There are choices for whether of not to bridge the NMEA input to SEATALK output that may affect NMEA output. There are specific sentence options as well.

The techie from Raymarine told me that My Chartplotter was NMEA 1.5 and the radio would not read anything below 2.0, thus the problem. I can buy a separate antenna from Standard to solve that problem, but I already have the NMEA at the radio, so a converter even for 120 bucks would be a tossup but much less work. Showing AIS on my chartplotter is not in the cards, as It will not accept the 38400Baud from the radio. But I can at least see it on the radio and handset and set alarms. Assuming the ship has their AIS on. Another lister, Jeff whom I know is lurking here found out after our annual fall cross-lake race Saturday nite. Coming in after a 62 mile (if it was a straight line!) race, coming up to the R2 buoy, a 750' freighter nearly ran him over in the dark with NO AIS, sounds like an interesting story, maybe he will elaborate. Hopefully he has changed his underwear by now . . .

The GX2150 documentation suggests that you should be able to configure it get GPS data from an NMEA 0183 source into the radio without a converter, if that is all you are trying to do. If you are planning to use an external display for the AIS data as well, then it appears to get complicated. I will be interested to hear how your installation works out.
