That still leaves some ambiguity as to the final state of the serial
ports.  I would do something more like:

stty -F /dev/ttyUSB1 9600 raw pass8

You may also want to investigate hardware flow control.  4800 and 9600
are pretty slow for modern GPS data rates.

Any JSON is -r mode is a bug.  By definition -r is NMEA only.  I'll look
into that.
