Tested my module yesterday for a few hours on 30 and it worked fine,
FSKCW GPS locked.

One of these :-


Settings match the QRSS kit's default GPS values..
Has an SMA connector for an external GPS antenna..
It's 3.3volts so needs a regulator on the kit's 5volt line.
22 pin socket is a tad small but hookup wire can be pushed into
the pin holes.

Pretty sensitive, works indoors and fairly quick to lock in..

Guys,

FWIW I used an EM-406A for testing the GPS functionality. See for details. They are widely available from Sparkfun and their distributors.

In the UK they are stocked by Proto-pic .

You will need 1 k ohm pull up resistors between the TX and Vcc and the PPS and Vcc.
