WARNING
Remember that the GPS spy light only indicates the correct
functioning of the GPS, not the accuracy of the GPS readings; to
evaluate precision, use the tools supplied with the GPS system
Step 6 The GPS data in NMEA$GGA format are saved as an ASCII file in the
same directory as the radar data; the GPS files have the same numbering
as the radar files, but have a *.GPS extension (see the example shown in
the picture Fig. C. 7). During the radar data acquisition phase, you can
check the GPS acquisition data using white Markers placed at the
bottom of the radar map.
