Clearly the Adafruit is not high accuracy.  I have played with some
short baseline DGPS (cm level data) and not found any issue with antenna
separation.

Care to recommend any that have SMA connectors?  I have found that
a 3dB difference in antenna can degrade my data quality, it would be
interesting to see how the 3dB loss of the splitter affects thins.
