Summary

NiceGPS

Ah yes, another project with the word "Nice", why? Not because its nice, but because it uses the "Nice!Nano" (nRF52840) as its MCU

Its a simple to make, standalone GPS receiver, showing everything you need to know when in the wild, and hopefully the battery lasts.

But Why?

I go out in big forests, I'd like to have a GPS that's decently cheap to make, for when I communicate on radio with others in the forest, to say where i am to more easily find each other. Will it be practical.. TBD.

Notes

The full version (With the big antenna on its hat) can fit a battery theoretically 4x50x30mm battery, i say theoretically because i shoved a 30x20x4mm battery.
The small version can hold 25x30xXmm (X because the thickness that will fit depends on the wires you solder on, but about 4mm as well)
