Most GPS antenna are active. I'm a bit more worried about the preamps
built into the antenna. A filter external to the antenna will not
protect the built-in preamp.
But there are all kinds of designs for home built GPS antenna. A
helix antenna is not hard to make. Timing GPSes at fixed sites can
use antenna that have a deep null aimed at the nearby transmitter
(which is also fixed) People at fixed sites will have it easy.
Mobile GPS users will not be able use antenna design.
