He said that he had left the GPS18 in its default mode, where much more
than a single sentence is sent out ( about 4 of them if I remember
correctly). He shold probably set it so just the single required
sentence is sent out.

Indeed, but I think we've talked about this before with David and
"default" may mean "default for use with NTP". We'll see. Certainly the
single sentence is the best - I happen to use: $GPRMC.

I'm trying to make $GPGGA the default, it is a much more informative sentence (using 'mode 2' in the server statement specifies this):

It contains the current time (hms), position (ddmm.mmmm), nr of visible sats, DOP etc, which makes it easy to write a little perl script to process the clockstats file to gather all sorts of interesting statistics.
