+There is a GPS tester included. It is called "gps". It simply connects
+to a GPS and displays your latitude, longitude, altitude, and the signal
+quality from visible satellites. When querying NMEA-compliant GPSes, it
+will show a diagram of satellites in their current position in the sky.
+It uses the same library code as gpsd.
gpsd is tested with DeLorme's TripMate, EarthMate and Garmin units.
+Also with the BU-303 USB GPS sold as the NaviLock, Deluo, and Hyperdata.
