Help Nikon D200 and Garmin 76C

I'm having trouble getting my Garmin 76C and Nikon D200 to work together.

I have the Nikon MC-35 adapter cable which I have connected to a Garmin
power/data combo cable but the GPS is not recognized by the camera.

What I know:

The camera recognizes a Megellan SporTrak and records the position in the
photo fine.

The Garmin cable works in a serial connection to a PC using GPS Utility
software.

Firmware D200 2.00 both A and B
76C 4.10

Has anyone been able to get these two to work together?

Your 76C support it. Look at page 48 of your manual. If you don't have
it anymore:

A program is never finished until the programmer dies.

Thanks for the tip. Sorry, but I should have said that I set the GPS to
"NMEA in/NMEA out" mode in my original post. It still does't work when set
this way.

Have you tried grounding the Nikon adapter and the GPS serial cable's
ground to a common ground?
