If your sentences without checksum can be digested by the Signal k server, I think so, you can rebuild your sentences. This tool will suffer big changes and improvements soon because is in the TODO list.
So far I have not been able to get a signalK sentence from a NMEA0183 input without a checksum. Would a "ignore checksum" or "force checksum" be on the feature list for the NMEA0183 input dialog one day?
Another option for me is to generate a checksum in hardware but I would like to avoid that.

Do you want the code? It should be really easy to modify to accommodate your strings.
I haven't looked into Node-RED at all yet but if you say that's a decent solution I would definitely give it a try. Code post here ok?
