Now that the cat is out of the bag - notice that on these boards we used
the special -T timing version which is more than twice as expensive than the
normal navigation version used by others.. I personally use the uBlox
software because the Skytrack software had a habit of crashing itself and my
computer from time to time..

Here is a link to a company that at least shares details of the SkyTraq
venus 8 chip on the LTE-Lite. The actual skytraq sites is pretty useless.

There is a program that will read the nema codes and such also.
Have used it and its not better or worse then ublox. A bit of humor it only
ever shows Asia for the ground track.
The venus 8 seems to have a lot of capability. Not sure how to get to it,
but the fact is for the LTE Lite its not needed. It has a single job to
perform.
It would be curious to obtain the board tindie sells because it supports
all of the satellites. But have to say thats a project for another day
wayyyy down the list.
But at least you can have some further technical details for the system.
