Okay, let's make this clear. You don't need *both* GPSes to extrapolate the functions, one will do just fine if you shoot it off and then retrieve it. If you can't, it's either bad luck (z-levels changed after sending the GPS) or your very own dumbness. That means you have a spare one.
And no, you don't have zero chance of losing a GPS. The first coordinates you try are pure guesswork, and if you're wrong a lot of bad things can happen. Such as the GPS on the pad being teleported randomly a short distance, which is quite enough to place it in a out of sight wall cluster or, more commonly, in space.
