GPS fix, but getting wrong grid square. #14

Closed WildMany closed 6 months ago

WildMany commented 6 months ago

Tried on laptop, tried on battery (power bank), and during two hours, not a single correct gridsquare (JN95): image

Meanwhile, during this period assembled ICT tracker: image image image

RPi Pico tracker should be easy and fast to set, but it is not so easy.

P.S. It has GPS fix, but it shows it on Antartic.: image

this may have been fixed by the change I just pushed for Whallmann. if the current version still doesnt work please turn verbosity to 5 and try to capture some of the debug messages.

Now seems that it working just fine: JN95JG. Will test in next few hours.
