gnss232 - a GPS receiver for the RS232 serial port

This project is a GPS receiver board that plugs into the abundant RS232 serial port, intended primarily for vintage computers and laptops, for which I plan to write a MS-DOS compatible GPS visualiser program. Some classic Windows programs for GPS exist but there is very little for DOS (nothing I find usable). There is nothing preventing this from working with modern computers, however, and it could also be used as a GPS time reference for an NTP server.
