Nick,
As I said in my e-mail, I can't answer your question as I don't know
enough about the internal configuration, but I would be very surprised
if the number of decimal places mattered. No chance one PC has the
period and the other the comma as the decimal separator? You may even
have found a bug!
Are the two sentences above actual sentences, or simulated? I ask
because if they are actual sentences I am surprised that the checksum
(the *04) is the same. Also, I don't understand what the final "A" just
before the checksum is. It's not mentioned here:
http://www.gpsinformation.org/dale/nmea.htm#RMC
but it is mentioned here:
http://home.mira.net/~gnb/gps/nmea.html#gprmc
and appears to be for NMEA 3.00. I don't know what version of NMEA NTP
supports - you would need to visit the source code to be sure.
