Exactly what do you mean by "... based in LEO has a relatively high risk
profile from the Universe/hostile activity/spoofing and jamming..."?
Other than a LOS, in a jammers immediate area, GPS is not subject to
jamming, and for the critical users, ie, the DOD, very difficult to jam,
even in a LOS.
The LEO makes it harder to jam since the received signal strength is higher
than would be practical from GeoSync orbit, not easier, as is implied my
Mr. McGraths comment.
