One thing I'm concerned about is using GPS as the speed signal. I don't ever see a WAAS based speed signal very often but with the RTK based speed signal that I can watch while planting I notice that it varies...a lot. Like 5.1 to 5.6 in the span of one second while the magnetic wheel sensor speed readout will very consistently say 5.3 mph. I would think this would play havoc with the population, but I may be wrong.
