The ADF is no big deal, but definitely keep the DME. My guess is that

find more GPS approaches that require DME than require ADF.



What GPS approaches would EVER require DME?


Sorry, not what I wanted to say. It's not that the GPS approach requires
DME, but that it gives more/better options than a ADF.

The only thing a DME lets you do is fly a non-GPS approach if
it required it. This is only useful if you want to fly to
places using a GPS-based approach and your only available
alternate requires DME.
