Good to know.

I played with ntrip a long time ago and found it near useless.  Feel
free to play with it, submit patches, and prove me wrong.

Not much I can do on it directly as I have no ZED-F9P or NTRIP source.

Pretty much no guidance from u-blox on how to configure ntrip.
Section 2.1.1.2 here:

    ZED-F9P_IntegrationManual_(UBX-18010802).pdf

A quick look at the file net_ntrip.c shows that gpsd does not know about
version 3.3. gpsd sees .3 and just gives up.  Line 246.  The ZED-F9P
requires 3.3, plus some proprietary messages.  Someone that understands
NTRIP will need to fix that.

As always, when in doubt about what gpsd is doing, just turn up the 
debug level:
        # gpsd -nND 4 /dev/ttyS0

Best to capture to a file (nohup, etc.) and examine after a test run.
Search for the case insensistive string: ntrip.
