[Bug]: Negative values in NMEA position sentence

Category

Serial

Hardware

T-Beam, T-Lora v2 1.6

Firmware Version

2.0.0.18ab874-d

Description

Using serial module in NMEA mode the sentence reports negative value on longitude. This causes the Garmin device (or any other NMEA0183 capable device) to not understand longitude, usually defaulting to 180°

Sentence example: $GNWPL,6432.48,N,-2207.82,W,BY705*71

But should look like this: $GNWPL,6432.48,N,2207.82,W,BY705*71

Relevant log output

No response

This fixed the negative value and the serial module NMEA mode is almost showing correct position ;) . Good work!
