I'm working on a little project including the Neo-6M GPS module. I bought two, one of them seems to be doing just fine. The second one, on the other hand, seems to not be able to complete the "bind" to satellites process. I left it out under the clear sky for about 15 minutes just to make sure. At first, it gave me a continuous:
$GPTXT,01,01,02,u-blox ag - www.u-blox.com*50

$GPTXT,01,01,02,u-blox ag - www.u-blox.com*50
$GPTXT,01,01,02,u-blox ag - www.u-blox.com*50
as an output. Wich was somehow worrying as I had not seen the same for the other module. At least not to the same extent. The other one to my knowledge got up and moving a lot quicker and without sending this $GPTXT NMEA sentence.
After leaving it out for a bit I instead starting receiving this (example):

And I honestly have no idea where to even start debugging what is actually going on here. As the output doesn't seem to be standard NMEA sentences. But at the same time doesn't seem to be completely unstructured. Does anyone have any knowledge as to what this means?
Thanks for your time
