[time-nuts] Furno GPS Rcvr, Was: no subject)

[Rex]

Thanks. That is more than I had seen before.

Looks like they basically talk NMEA. Maybe one day I'll look into this. 
For my Z3816, I made a PIC-based LCD display for time and status. It 
tapped into the serial stream from the Oncore GPS receiver inside the 
box. Looks like the same could be done here, but with completely 
different parsing.
