The while loop inside the void loop is that actual program that runs all the time. Yes, I could put the systemInit() in the void setup section, I just have it in the main loop because it is not really a setup, just some sequencing on a display one of my peers included. As for why I am not using the tinyGPS library, well I just chose not to. I could use it, but everything is already done... The code I have is just me experimenting and trying to learn how to control the code.
Thanks
