VARIABLE BITS DESCRIPTION
STATUS BYTE 8
Bit (1:0) = 1 Truncated message type
Bit (7:2) = submask data from Truncated user data
LATITUDE/LONGITUDE 48
Byte 1 = Latitude MSByte
Byte 2 = Latitude
Byte 3 = Latitude LSByte
Byte 4 = Longitude MSByte
Byte 5 = Longitude
Byte 6 = Longitude LSByte
360 degrees of longitude coded in signed binary with 3 bytes and 180 degrees of latitude coded
in signed binary with 3 bytes
Positive longitude corresponds to East longitudes
Positive Latitude corresponds to North latitudes
