Not sure if it helps, but the FAA has specs on the system. Don't have
the URL handy, now.

There is GPS World: http://www.gpsworld.com/gpsworld/

On a side note, it wouldn`t be too hard to figure those figures (pun
intended) on your area, since those are time and position dependent. A
bit off-topic, maybe, but not too hard.
