Consider the case where the GPS does not get a fix and transmits. #62

How will the time deltas be affected? If not fix, it will calculate abs(0 - x) minutes. But if the gps got a fix earlier, it will return the previous time so delta will be calculated abs(earlier_time - x) minutes.

We can make it such that if no fix, force it to calculate (0 - x). And set a bit in transmission that fix not found.
