You have a few problems, not least this:

Code:
            # Convert every value from 71 4 17.92 in 71.071644443
            DEGREES=$( echo ${I} | awk '{ print $1 }' )
            MINUTES=$( echo ${I} | awk '{ print $2 }' )
            SECOND=$(  echo ${I} | awk '{ print $3 }' )

What does that comment mean, and where do those values come from?

DEGREES, MINUTES and SECOND are not set, so the bc is getting something like
Code:
+/60+/3600

which is obviously junk to it.
