GSV - GPS SATELLITE IN VIEW

Number of satellites in view, PRN number, elevation angle, azimuth angle, and C/No. Only up to four satellite

details are transmitted per message. Additional satellite in view information is sent in subsequent GSV

messages.

Format:

$GPGSV,<1>,<2>,<3>,<4>,<5>,<6>,<7>,…,<4>,<5>,<6>,<7> *<8><CR><LF>

Example:

$GPGSV,2,1,08,26,50,016,40,09,50,173,39,21,43,316,38,17,41,144,42*7C<CR><LF>
