How are you powering the BBB? I experienced a similar issue when using a micro USB, but switching to the 9-18 V barrel jack input solved it.

Hello,

Okay. I am back. It works as it has been put together. So, it is /dev/ttyO2 on the aphw file for starting arducopter/rover/whatever but you need the extra USB connection along w/ the 2S LiPo battery pack for use w/ this specific GPS Unit.

P.S. You may need to set up the BB-UART2-00A0.dtbo file in uboot-overlays at /boot/uEnv.txt and reboot to see it actually work.
