Is it necessary to have a checksum in a NMEA0183 sentence in order for it to be parsed by the server?

There’s an option in the connection settings to turn off checksum checks
Ah yeah I see that option. Should I switch
append the checksum on or does it matter?If those are getting sent to other devices/apps, you may need to append.
If just being consumed by the server, doesn’t matter
Okay cool. I don't think these sentences have a checksum, and are only being parsed by Signalk. PBVE sentence is proprietary, so no matter
Thanks Scott
