Very nice PIC project. Unfortunately, the Trimble ThunderBolt does not output the easily parsed NEMA ASCII data strings. The ThunderBolt data is in ASCII Hex and needs to be converted, and in some cases, it needs to be converted using 64 bit floating point math. Something the 8 bit PIC finds extremely difficult.
