Re: SiRF2 LOL

[Chris Kuethe]

I was about to say I'm probably the only person with a functional old
SiRF receiver, but I see there are still SiRF4-based BU-353's on
Amazon. This receiver has been living in a parts bin for the last 15
years (has it really been that long?!) so it's not a burning issue.

Yep, I ran uCenter under WINE and got my VK172 to report jamming
state. MON-HW does what I want; MON-RF isn't supported on this
particular device (or, ucenter is unable to enable that message).

I would indeed like to report the jamming state. indi_gpsd wouldn't do
anything with it - no/2d/3d fix is all it wants - but if I'm sitting
here wondering why my astronomy rig isn't getting GPS time/location
I'm comfortable running gpsmon.

GDB has a 'break' feature; why doesn't it have 'fix' too?
