Dean, please check again.   You'll see that you typed ddmm.mmmm, however the
data presented in the plot is ddmm.mm__.   Note that the last two digits
have been truncated...

-Thanks for your consideration, -Kenneth

The values on the axes appear to be in NMEA format (ddmm.mmmm).
That's the most resolution NMEA can give.

Thanks for the other data.  Regarding number of satellites: 12 is the
max the SiRFstarIII can receive at one time.  The lowest HDOP I've
seen is 0.8 (beautiful day, open sky, 10 minutes of measurements).

!!Dean
