' Connect the Yellow Wire from your Parallax GPS Receiver to P0. The Black
' wire goes to VSS and the Red wire goes to VDD. All others wires should
' not be connected (I plugged mine into empty isolated breadboard slots)
' Reads NMEA data string from GPS receiver and parses data. GPS string is
' buffered into scratchpad RAM with SPSTR modifier. Once in SPRAM, data is
' parsed out based on its position.

'
' POS_UTC - UTC of position. Hours, minutes and seconds. (hhmmss)
' POS_STAT - Position status. (A = Data valid, V = Data invalid)
' LAT - Latitude (ddmm.ffff)
' LAT_D - Latitude direction. (N = North, S = South)
' LON - Longitude (dddmm.ffff)
' LON_D - Longitude direction (E = East, W = West)
' SPD - Speed over ground. (knots) (0.0 - 999.9)
' HDG - Heading/track made good (degrees True) (x.x)
' DATE - Date (ddmmyy)
' MAG_VAR - Magnetic variation (degrees) (x.x)
' MAG_REF - Magnetic variation (E = East, W = West)
' *CC - Checksum

Comments
(I have modified the change but did not comment)
I was using BS2P sample program modified to BS2
For the price of a BS2P you can buy two USB Propeller Project Boards. The propeller has many more resources than the BS2 or BS2P, more memory, faster, and can perform 8 simultaneous tasks. Plus you have quite a few options for programming, SPIN, PASM, BASIC, C, C++, several FORTH's. (I wonder if anyone is looking into COBOL?)
SERIN GPSpin, T4800, 3000, No_GPS_Data, [WAIT("GPRMC,"), SPSTR 65]
waits for the string "GPRMC" and then stores the next 65 characters in Scratchpad Ram ( SPSTR 65).You changed it to
SERIN GPSpin, T4800, 2000, No_GPS_Data, [WAIT("GPRMC,"), SKIP 65]
which also waits for string "GPRMC" but then SKIPs the next 65 characters, period. Nothing was stored , just skipped.Just about the same for the SERIN... statement under "Get_Altitude:".
The BS2P has a 128 byte Scratchpad ram memory, the BS2 does not. This program requires the BS2P because it has the Scratchpad.
The BS2 has NOWHERE to put 65 or 75 incoming characters except possibly in EEPROM, which would wear out rather quickly in this application.
In short, changing various statements in order to compile for a BS2 does not alter the fact that the BS2 does not have the resources that this program needs.

Debug Terminal ?
Why not show the numerical?
Page 169 of the current Stamp manual states that
DEBUG "Hello"
is the same asSEROUT 16, $4054, ["Hello"]
$4054 is Hex for 16468. The signal has to be inverted since it goes through an RS232 level driver which is an inverter.Change the constant declaration from n9600 CON 84 to i9600 CON 16468. Don't forget to change all the SEROUT statements. You could leave the name as n9600 but the n denotes non-inverted and could cause confusion later on.
Also you need to correct the following error;
[COLOR=#3E3E3E]GOTO Main[/COLOR] [COLOR=#3E3E3E]DEBUG CR ' Show empty debug window if GPS does not respond[/COLOR]
Any statement following a GOTO... statement must have a label which is used in another part of the program or else the statement is unreachable.
You did a marvelous job in reducing the BS2P program to work in a BS2. Let us know if it works out.
I do not understand what you mean.
We tried to modify it still does not show the latitude and longitude.
This is stuff we use.
Can you please re-post your code with your latest changes?
Just get rid of the DEBUG CR statement that follows the GOTO..., it will never execute. More important, your SERIN statement in MAIN: is missing the timeout parameter. Without it, your program will stall, waiting for the GPS to send the "RMC" string. You need to add the timeout parameters as was done in the BS2P version. " SERIN GPSpin, T4800, 2000, No_GPS_Data, [WAIT("GPRMC,"), SKIP 65] ". You need to add those two items into the SERIN statement and then write a small block of code labelled No_GPS_Data to handle the error in case the GPS stops working. Something similar from the earlier program...

Go to the following web site, it has everything you need for your particular GPS module. I found it by Google searching GPS modules by image, and came across the one you picture, and its web site. It also has a BS2 demo program. One thing that stood out is that with the RAW pin unconnected the GPS is in command mode where you have to send a command out to receive anything from the receiver.
http://www.grandideastudio.com/portfolio/gps-receiver/
I can see where the OP had problems getting the code.
It could have been gotten off of classic.parallax.com, but now that is in the ether.
Parallax, Inc. was the exclusive manufacturer of the GPS Receiver Module. The module has been discontinued as of December 15, 2011.
From the pictures on the site, the site link is printed on the back of the module. OP could have saved himself a lot of work by simply looking at the board.
Yes, but they had full documentation on the old Parallax site while it was being sold, and when it was discontinued.
I tried to back up the old Parallax site, but could not. The Wayback Machiche can not access the old site because of robot.txt.
Connect the pin labelled /RAW to Vss (GND).
OK .However, only two orientations should I go to increase
