NMEA sentences are vaiable length.  So you want to use the first one
to cut jitter on the NMEA time.  In practice you have the PPS, 10,000
times more accurate, so never a problem unless you lose PPS.

Some GPS can barely get all their sentences out every second at 9600.
If you have a lot of sats in view, or optional NMEA turned on, your
buffers may overflow.
