FakeGPS notes

If no GPS hardware is present then a "Fake GPS" or static set of location coordinates can be set.
From a terminal connection to the HBG3 use the setting:
fakegps xx.xxxxxx xx.xxxxxx
get all will then show the set variables.
I used set gps.location.lat and gps.location.lng individually but didn't see gps.location.force change so tried to populate it thinking the coordinates would be volatile. As the 'force' variable name changed since I first set it threw me.
Fakegps 50.000000 -2.000000 changes to N 49.99998 W 2.99998
Get all shows a dd.dddddd setting but the OLED shows dd.ddddd (less a digit, and different value).
Should the format be DD or DMS? https://www.gps-coordinates.net/
