To get to CMOS levels, you usually add a simple inverter, with an
capacitor in front and a 1M resistor across the inverter (from input
to output).

I think you are mixing up a few things here:
Your logger might have very relaxed jitter requirements, but the
GPS module needs a low noise reference signal. If you feed it with
the noisy HC53 output, you will degrade your GPS receivers performance
severely. At the minimum, you should use a normal XO for the GPS modul.
You can of corse use a HC53 as the reference for your logger if its
jitter is ok for you.
And for comparison, for a XO you usually talk about jitter in the
order of 100fs to 1ps (10kHz-20MHz)
