So if there's someone they'd listen to, it's not too late to see if 
there's features from the various time-nuts F9P posts that ublox would add?

And if they're listening, given the number of users in high-multipath 
environments due to limited skyviews, for firmware that is aimed at 
fixed-position usages, I'd like to see:
o   the min elevation have a matching max elevation
o   an azimuth range, starting to ending, to exclude sats not in that range
That should be just as fast in execution as the current min-elevation 
setting?

The ability to specify a sat to exclude from the solution would be very 
useful. Then at least we could monitor the list of sats, their elevation 
& azimuth and issue a command to exclude one that isn't in our skyview. 
Much neater to have the max elevation and azimuth range as above.

A much less common benefit of a specific sat exclusion is: it would 
allow us to exclude a sat when it's passing behind the known position of 
an interfering object in our skyview. I have two transformers on poles 
I'd love to remove.
