Hi,
I have an MTK-3301 (Surefilre), running for about 10 years, on a Linux x64.
gpsd: 3.24.1~dev (revision release-3.24-295-g327b57968)
had stopped showing the Skymap. I assumed that this was a PHP or something error, and never got round to debugging it.
I did notice that if I pressed Refresh, etc, I would get flashes (once in a dozen times) of the Skymap.
Today, I re-read on the ?WATCH command, and noticed the GPGSV was appearing only every 5 cycles. So this behaviour is understandable.
Would it be better for gpsd.php to *not* clear the skymap on each cycle? Or might that give false, stale, results?
Alternatively, drivers/drivers.c, lines 1027ff:

I see the "5" there clearly.
I tried using gpsctl, to send:
$PMTK314,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0*29
but that does not change anything
