The problem is likely due to variable timing of the NMEA messages
(which may depend on the GPS firmware, number of satellites, and
probably other things), which causes the sources to not agree with
each another. Try removing the SHM 0 source, or add the noselect
option. Also, remove the lock option from the SHM 1 source. It works
only with PPS sources.
