Thanks Chris and everyone else who responded. I just didn't know what to look
for. The full 36 shouldn't take up all that much memory.

IIRC: 6 planes, 6 slots each, so 36 to cover the sphere, and the GPS aperture
is big (high orbits) so guess up to 1/2 of the constellation could ever be in
view (... yeah, right): 18?

Is there a practical limit to the number of GPS sats overhead at any one time?
I ask this because I'd like to start parsing this info from my ublox receiver
and need to setup an array for the values. Memory is not unlimited on my PIC.
