WEDSolder connection broke. Resolderd. Unsolderd all other connections then resoldered. Burnt small area on finger.
THUStarted getting data from GPS module. Researching what to do with data when received. Decided to try to use bluetooth somehow. Brainstorming: social 'Amber Alert' ping system, extend ble range by resonance (similar to wifi power transfer), long range ble scanner issued to law enforcment, way to tell if gps is receiving a signal (sanning for "dead space" with other device-what signals are being absorbed etc), ultrasonic ping,
