The GPGSA line is consistently showing that the GPS isn't getting a fix.
(The line would start with A,2 or A,3 if it had 2D or 3D fix, respectively,
according to the NMEA documentation I found.)

I don't see any other information being dumped out of the GPS - is there
perhaps an initialization procedure I can look at?

Also, does anyone know which external antenna I would need to connect to the
FR's GPS antenna connector?
