Re: Can't get time

[Tom Isaacson]

We only have gpsd and gpsd-api built for this platform right now. The feed from the serial once per second is:

$GPGLL,***,*,***,*,205121.00,A,A*7C
$GPRMC,205122.00,A,***,*,***,*,0.060,,020420,,,A*6B

$GPVTG,,T,,M,0.060,N,0.112,K,A*27

$GPGGA,205122.00,***,*,***,*,1,07,1.31,36.6,M,27.9,M,,*7E

$GPGSA,A,3,18,05,02,25,29,06,12,,,,,,2.19,1.31,1.76*0C

$GPGSV,3,1,11,02,**,***,40,05,**,***,19,06,**,***,38,09,**,***,22*7C

$GPGSV,3,2,11,12,**,***,16,13,**,***,23,15,**,***,,18,**,***,30*75

$GPGSV,3,3,11,19,**,***,,25,**,***,22,29,**,***,38*4E

(I've removed the lat/long because I'm WFH).

I'm not sure what you mean by that.  Can you explain what you are
looking at and what you expect to see?

Does cgps show a fix, and a time?

Send your data here:  gpspipe -R -n 100 > raw.log

Maybe also your JSON: gpspipe -w -n 100 > json.log

And why do you wnat a control socket?  The problem is not the
control socket, the problem is that something may try to use it.
