Can I send GPS data from GPSD via SignalK and SailorHat to a Garmin GPSMap 722SX?

Pretty much as the heading says. I have a GPSMap that I just replaced my old 720S with, and it turns out that this is less sensitive for GPS signals, so I woke up to nothing after a whole night on. But I do have the GPS puck working, and SignalK and a SailorHat. Has anybody used those to anything like that, so they could give me some pointers?

Thank you very much! I will try to fiddle with that and be back to ask if I don't get anywhere! But one question, source priorities, is that somewhere in the Garmin menu or is it the SignalK source priorities?

Signal K, under Server, Data Connections

Thanks again! Got it working! 😁 At first I saw the data coming in, but I didn't get it as GPS coordinates on the map. I needed to set the Garmin GPS source from Auto to SailorHat, and now it's working.
