Well... it's certainly possible to remove the patch antenna, but using a remote GPS antenna might end up being a bit harder than you think. On TeleMetrum v1 boards, we used an amplified patch with a short pig-tail to a U.FL connector on the board, but in all current products we're using a passive patch through a SAW filter directly to the GPS receiver module. It's certainly theoretically possible to remove the patch, install a suitable RF connector, and run coax to a remote GPS antenna, but I suspect you might want to use an amplified antenna in such a situation. I'm curious what about your install makes you think this is a good solution, though? Can you share a diagram or photo or something? We might be able to find you a simpler solution... Bdale
