/* Send UBX binary commands to enable RTCM sentences on Ublox NEO-M8P-2 module By: Nathan Seidle SparkFun Electronics Date: September 7th, 2018 License: MIT. See license file for more information but you can basically do whatever you want with this code. This example does all steps to configure and enable a NEO-M8P-2 as a base station: Begin Survey-In Once we've achieved 2m accuracy and 300s have passed, survey is complete Enable four RTCM messages Begin outputting RTCM bytes Feel like supporting open source hardware?
