2.91.6 Number of Satellites Tracked

This indicates the number of satellites used in the position solution. This corresponds to
the count and bit mask of the GNSS satellites making of the solution. The number of
satellites tracked can be different (larger) than both the number of satellites used in the
position solution and in the velocity solution. This can occur when satellites are being
tracked at elevations below the elevation cutoff for navigation. This value presents as an
8-bit unsigned integer.

2.91.7 Navigation Solution Mode

This is really two fields, the first of which identifies the navigation mode, bits one through
four, which form a number that defines the contents of bits five through eight.
