So what do I need to do here? It was working well with just shm and
the PPS signal, once I added both NEMA and PPS things went
south....what do I need to be looking at here, I'm by far not an
expert at this.

When I look at the GPS unit with the Garmin utility in Windows it has
a fix and altitude in it so I'm assuming its seeing a sufficient
number and also gpsd is griping about too many satellites at times in
/var/log/messages so I'm guessing there are far more than 4.
