log only one kind of GNSS (ie. SBAS by filter) #679

I am watching for only SBAS that popup on my various devices and while I can filter by only SBAS, they disappear too quickly to study.

One had an american flag, another looked Chinese which seems strange, but the second I touched the phone it vanished.

So I'd like to request logging by GNSS type, ie. SBAS only, the same way you can filter them in display?

Then I can more closely examine what network it was, WAAS etc. without collecting a ton of data I'm not concerned with

Thank you for considering and for creating/sharing such a fantastic program.

Hey @RinseRepeat, thanks for the feedback!

While I agree this would be useful, unfortunately there are so many fields to filter the log for that it would be overwhelming in the settings to include this and others.

I typically upload files to Google Sheets and use the filtering feature there when I'm looking for specific fields/values. I'd suggest giving that a try if you haven't already.
