a RAK12500 plugged into slot A (they only fit, physically, on A or C, looks like) appears to be working on my newly-setup RAK19007/RAK4631 device, so I added the 19007 to the section on using a RAK12500

This one is going to have some conflicts with #945 I believe

I believe it would be more appropriate to list all supported hardware and make a note that the 12500 is newer and perhaps list it's advantages. The 1910 is still widely available and a bit cheaper so we don't want people thinking it's not supported. Sorry, this page was a bit of a mess to start.

That's totally fair, I've just been cautious about adding things I'm unsure about. Would it be better for me to build something on top of #945? I guess I'm at least confident enough to state that RAK12500 and RAK1910 are both compatible with RAK19007 & 19003 so I could rewrite the section to address that, but I'm unsure if 945 is likely to/needs to go in first or anything like that.

#945 has been merged

there was some conversation on GPS chips and slots today:

If you search the discord for 1910 and 12500 you'll find all the answers. A lot of things have changed over the past year or so.

Alright, I've updated this and reorganized it slightly. The page headings are now for the GPS modules rather than for combinations of GPS/base board, which matches the other peripherals sections, and under each the supported boards & slots are listed. As far as I can tell, the 5005 board only supports the 1910. I removed the details about I2C/UART as they don't seem relevant to someone buying hardware (and everything uses UART now, according to discord). I updated the slots to match what's been said in discord (which is largely, use slot A on 19007 and slot C, the only available one of the right size, on 19003).
