I finally got a file of data that works and have have posted it plus a description of the file format here: <http://www.jks.com/gps/gps.html> I've used it successfully with Andrew Holme's excellent homemade GPS receiver. Now on to building an actual RF front-end to get some real signals..

If anyone's interested, I could probably get some samples of raw bits
from a triband (L1,L2, L5) single bit sampler. Sample rate is about 39
MHz. The way the hardware works, the largest file is probably around 60
million samples (about a second and a half's worth of data)
If you want to use the data in a publication, you'd need to credit JPL
as the source of the data.
