I think that question ties into some of the other responses to the original 
post.  The value of doing the TDR measurement would probably depend on your 
cable lengths and how likely you think it is that a connector mismatch would 
cause cable reflections that might smear the GPS signals.

Since you're fortunate enough to have a TDR, it might be interesting to do it 
just to see how much mismatch there really is.  If the resolution of the 
measurement is good enough you should be able to see all of the connectors.  If 
nothing else, it might tell you if you have a bad cable end or a loose 
connection.

Maybe the Italian guys should have run an optical TDR on their timing setup 
before doing the neutrino measurements :)
