James, I suppose the GPS you bought at Sure Electronics is the demo board with the Skylab module. Did you made any test to know if it has a reliable PPS output that can be used for timing? I´m considering to buy one.
Your question about the height difference is almost sure due to different datums in each receiver, as others had pointed out. Best regards, Ignacio, EB4APL James R.
