Re: "Note that this is not a GPS problem, nor a Trimble problem. It's just
a problem with user written software."
I agree with Mark's comment. His software makes no attempt to "interpret"
or "correct" the information put out by the Thunderbolt, it simply reports
it. My Thunderbolt Monitor does the same thing.
I can imagine a different tool with a different objective doing something
different with good reason, but that is not what Lady Heather does, by
choice rather than by mistake.

It's a problem with user's expectations :)
