My GTA01 at roof-top conditions generally gets a fix in <60s, time in
<10s.
However, the altitude calculation is broken, it seems gllin has no idea
of the separation of the geoid and WGS84 ellipsoid.
Example:
$GPGGA,115900.000,4341.5434,N,00717.4516,E,1,07,1.1,8.5,M,48.4,M,,0000*51
^^^^
the 48.4m are this separation.
They are not calculated from satellite data. The gllin seems to
calculate some garbage value there <1m. Thus altitude is ~48.4m too high
where I live.
