I've been reading that, but have not had any success in getting any UBX 
output... I have managed to disable NMEA (both using $PUBX NMEA 
extensions and your UBX generator) but then I get no data on the tty.

Atleast one of the outliers had multiple samples, but I am suspicious of 
those being synthetic as well.

 From the bit of testing I have done so far, it would seem that heavy 
use of the SDCard can cause the CEP to increase by 25%-50% but it is 
still typically better than the reference receivers. I had hoped to do 
my next round of testing in UBX mode (if that solves the issue with 
samples coming faster than once a second). If I can't get that figured 
out soon, I will just configure the GPS to only emit GGA sentences, then 
I will only get one fix per second from gpsd.
