[FOSS-GPS] Problem with RTKLIB kinematic, large residual, slip detected, ambiguity validation failed

try to rule out real-time issues
by saving the data streams as
files on disk and post-processing
using the rtkpost GUI instead of the
rtkrcv CUI.  ask it to save residuals
and inspect them graphically using
rtkplot.
