This wouldn't matter at all. For frequency, it has no effect, and if the 
GPS 1pps is being used for audio phase this would just offset the phase 
as though the transmitter itself were moved by the same number of feet 
(and/or its feedline increased by that amount)... not audible at all, as 
audible artifacts only start after a few *miles* of phase error.

I like this guess,... that the paging tone (or tone remote keying, as I 
suggested a moment ago) is causing one to come unlocked.
