[time-nuts] GPS antenna splitter recommendation?

I use splitters made for satellite TV with good results, I think. They 
have response 5 MHz to >2 GHz and pass DC from any of the outputs to the 
input, so any or all GPS receivers can feed the antenna.  Some cabling 
can be done with F connectors, or I add adapters as necessary (F to BNC 
adapters are common).  I even have some amplified splitters, though I 
modify them so they pass the normally 5V from GPS RXs to antenna and 
have external 12V power for the amplifier.

73,

David
