   This example shows how to query a u-blox module for the current time and date as Unix Epoch uint32_t type to avoid time.h dependency.
   We also turn off the NMEA output on the I2C port. This decreases the amount of I2C traffic dramatically.
 
+  Note: this example works best on modules like the ZED_F9P. Modules like the ZOE_M8Q do not support confirmedTime.
+
   Leave NMEA parsing behind. Now you can simply ask the module for the datums you want!
 
   Feel like supporting open source hardware?
