John,

My experience with SA some years ago was that the timing accuracy was in the order of LORAN C, that is, about one microsecond. However, the oscillator in my Austron 2201 GPS receiver was disciplined in frequency by LORAN C, with result the timing accuracy was in the order of 50 ns. I calibrated it with a Cesium oscillator. In other words, even if SA were turned back on, it is easily defeated.

issues with the signals from the satellite?

I believe that it would inject a maximum of about 300 ns of random
error.  However, SA is obsolete.  The newest satellites don't even
implement it.
