Hi:

It's pretty easy to connect an Ohm meter to the 58536 when it's not 
connected to anything else and measure the load resistance on the output 
ports.
In a similar fashion you can connect different value resistors to the 
antenna terminals of the GPS receiver to see what values it likes.  Some 
GPS receivers have not only antenna detection but in addition have short 
circuit detection, i.e. there is a min and max value of load resistor 
they are looking for.

Have Fun,
