GPS working


Looks like the GPS module working fine, (though not quite sure why my back window is doing 1.05 kts)
This one has its own ariel built onto the chip, and will also data log for around 16 hrs
Seems to work ok through the back window, so should be ok through a polystyrene box I reckon

output from Arduino:

Time: 13:48:4.0
Date: 1/3/2013
Fix: 1 quality: 1
Location: 5212.3139N, 0.3604E
Speed (knots): 1.05
Angle: 129.66
Altitude: 75.20
Satellites: 7


This was just using the stock Adafruit code, so we can strip it down & make sure the pins are correct for the payload
