Hi

The (likely) biggest issue with the M12 clone boards is that they are
12 channel. The report strings have more satellites in them than the 
old 8 channel boards did. That’s going to mess up the parsing algorithms 
if you want the REF-0 to work with all the data (record the sat info vs
ignore it).
