GPS device - /dev/ttyUSB0 - for My
-N to get data continuously
-G to listen on all interfaces
-D debug Level
To test:
telnet 0.0.0.0 2947

In EVERY LOG is seen :

2d
This mean that GPS Lock position from Two satelites! This is very important.
If not Lock acquired, you will see:
"GPS has no fix" in gpsd log
and
A,1 - in telnet log
and no gpx log will be created from cgpslogger.
Any program will not work and give strange results :).
