but it is not what you think it is or what you would like.
it just restarts the gps worker, when its thread isn't active.
relying on that i finish the gps loop, when its responses looks "abnormal" to 
me from that what i am expecting at the moment.
- i expect not getting the same response (hash) nonstop for a given time.
- i expect valid response in a given time.
(the invalid detection is maybe useless, because response hash also coverst at 
least some of thoses cases and at the moment all restarts were because of 
nonstop same response hashes)

but at the moment it meets my requirements
