Actually, right now the GPS is set to continually transmit the Long/lat solution at the rate specified (5hz, 10hz, etc.). In GPS terms nothing is sent from the GPS until you send a command requesting data to be transmitted. To do this all messages are turned off by default. The GPS_PORT_available is checking to see if the GPS data has been transmitted. Don't like it, but was putting it out there. I prefer the threads method that we are using.
