Not an opinion, a fact: I can not find any doc from Furuno on their
version of Oncore.  They must have extended the protocol to support
GLONASS, etc.  So old doc is not helpful.

If you can show us some doc, then maybe gpsd can support it.

Maybe the part's basic NMEA support is good eenough, but no way to tell
with no doc.  You have a link to doc on the @@ commands?
