Don't see the advantage of GPS timing this mode, the timing is generated by

Correct, as a matter of fact the tolerance is much higher than that.
My decoder computes a running statistic of the frequency peaks encountered,
and uses this to declare that a new baud is incoming, so the timing requirements
are rather relaxed. The only true requirement is to obey to the time/frequency
duality, which imposes a baud duration at least equal to the inverse of the
FFT bin, 0.084114.... Hz.
GPS could be of advantage should Jason use coherent decoding, which in its
present form it doesn't.
