You see, this NMEA sentence differ from what I assumed to be standard.
There is unknown checksum in the end. I can modify parser so, that it 
would
accept such unnatural sentences, but it is very, very strange for me.
What GPS device do You use? I wish to look at it documentation, perhaps 
I've missed something in standart.


Regarding NMEA.scan, it will never return anything. It can only call 
method
rmc on NMEAHandler.
