GPS M10478-A2 has gone obsolete, substitute M20050-1? #52

Hi, interested in your opinion and I imagine you'll have to make a similar change anyway in the future:

After your Amp Hour appearance, I got impatient for waiting, so I'm building two or three FaradayRF boards based on the REV D board layout. Aside from some careful MLCC substitutions (!@#$%) and the SPI flash that's DNP (and which looks like a standard interface), the significant thing that I couldn't obtain was the GPS M10478-A2 module. An EOL notice from Antenova says to use the M20048, which Digikey didn't have, but I went looking at the M20050-1 and it seems to also be a compatible pinout, except for wanting a 1.8 nH inductor between pin 28 and GND and having a somewhat different antenna. I am actually tempted to just put one in the existing circuit and see how it performs, though I could probably isolate the pad with kapton and bodge in a tiny wire. :)

Thanks!
