Hi

Given that this is for intermittent EME use, it’s not a system that has uber
reliability as a requirement. Once you get the antenna up in a reasonable location
a GPS is going to be pretty stable and reliable. If you have an EME array 
running, adding a GPS antenna to it probably not a big deal. 

If it *is* a big deal, run a GPSDO and then it’s no longer a problem. The KS
boxes still seem to be out there for < $100 ….
