[time-nuts] EOL Trimble 99889-00 : Protempis replacement ?

[Gregory Beat]

Trimble has declared their Resolution-SMT GPS chipset (Trimble 99889-00) 
found on the 66226-A1 GPS Timing Module Carrier Board as End of Life.
So, as expected the normal Surplus avenues are beginning to show these Trimble GPS/GNSS boards for sale.
==
Protempis, a GNSS chip company appears to have a multiple constellation GNSS receiver for the Timing market, that is Pin-compatible.
I have not looked at detailed pricing.

Has anyone attempted this “Brain Surgery” swap on the Trimble carrier board ?
It would require Hot Air handpiece and Surface Mount skills.
