Good. Thank you!  I added your file to the regression tests.

Of course the new NMEA sentences do not output anything into the
check file yet, but they will.

The decodes are now on the NMEA page in git.  They be on the live
web after the nexxt web update.

Good question.  How often do these update?  Every second?  Every minute?

Maybe best to start with just listing the data you expect to decode from
the new sample file.  Plus expected ranges, units, period between
data, etc.

No matter yes, or no, that would be a good sample to start with.

You can do most of the decode, and output the decoded data into
gpsd_log().  Until then, no need to have a place for it.

And thank you for that!
