This could also be a big show stopper for cellular and radio networks. Many use a 10.0000000 MHz timebase distributed from a GPS disciplined local oscillator for precise time and frequency synchronization. Without this tight frequency stabilization from a GPS receiver, major drama will occur on the "borders" between simulcasting repeater coverage areas, cell sites, etc. Can anyone say Spaghetti mess?

Do you use GPS to provide any mission critical services (like time of day) in your network?
Have you already see this? (I hadn't)
