Yes, I have two.  But for this test I'm not using that feature set,
just basic PVT.  BTW, that RTK is superb, I can resolve 1 cm changes
when I move the rover!  But not how it is configured right now.

Cold start was a few minutes, had been off for over 5 years, but
48 hours for things to really settle down.  Maybe a factor of 3 better
after the 2 day wait.

I just added a u-blox 6 GPS mouse, and split the SkyTraq PPS to go into
GPIO 4 and GPIO 18.  So three PPS on one RasPi.  I'll post results later
today, first I finish to compiling the new kernel with the new multiple
PPS patch.
