Looking at Amazon, quantity one, I see:
RasPi3 $35
GPS Hat w/ remote antenna and cord: $30
16BG miscro sd card: $9
RaspI + HAT case: $10
USB charger: $8
USB charge cable: $2
Cat5 ethernet cable: $2
Looks like $96 to me. You can save some if you buy in bulk,
Plus labor, which after the first one is small.

Yeah, just for setup. Shall we include the price of the desk it sits
and the building it is in?
