Can't preserve the raw AIS message

[Owen Mather]

Hi All,

I’m processing an AIS feed using Gpsd but I’m having trouble preserving the raw data passed in. 

I have an AIS messages as follows

\s:A01-SC084,c:1500862415,t:LIVE*59\!AIVDM,1,1,,A,38;?cf10008aPTl8G3:P090L0P00,0*2F

Using gpspipe I can correctly decode the message: 

!AIVDM,1,1,,A,38;?cf10008aPTl8G3:P090L0P00,0*2F

But I want to preserve the data before the message:

\s:A01-SC084,c:1500862415,t:LIVE*59\

When I run gpspipe -R which is meant to show the raw data, it only shows the AIVDM messages and not the actual raw message that was sent to gpsd.

Is there anyway to access the raw message alongside the decoded version?

Many Thanks

Owen
