$PASHQ,GST,[c1]
This command allows you to query for the GST message, where c1 is the optional
port designator for the output of the response. If a port is not specified, the receiver
sends the response to the current port.
$GPGST
The GST message contains UTC time, the RMS value of the standard deviation for
satellite range measurements, and the corresponding standard deviation values for
latitude, longitude, and altitude. The response is output in the format:
$GPGST,m1,f2,f3,f4,f5,f7,f8,f9*hh
Table 4.84 defines the message format.
Typical GST message:
$GPGST,130927.00,18.45,,,,17.78,11.74,28.68*71
