  basically do whatever you want with this code.

  This example shows how to put the Ublox module into power save mode and then
  query its lat/long/altitude. We also turn off the NMEA output on the I2C port.
  This decreases the amount of I2C traffic dramatically.

  ** When it is able to ** the module will reduce its current draw.
  For the ZOE-M8Q with a passive antenna, you should see the current drop
  from (approx.) 25-28mA to (approx.) 9mA when power save mode kicks in.

  Note: this will fail on the ZED (protocol version >= 27) as UBX-CFG-RXM is not supported

  Note: Long/lat are large numbers because they are * 10^7. To convert lat/long
  to something google maps understands simply divide the numbers by 10,000,000. We
  do this so that we don't have to use floating point numbers.

  Leave NMEA parsing behind. Now you can simply ask the module for the datums you want!
