[rescue] cheap gps for time reference (fwd)

My father replies:

All ready checked them out - they basically have an older Motorola PVT-6,
6 channel receiver in them.  Its the predisesor to the Oncore's.  Its
really too much for what it is.  They sold new for around $1200.

And people forget something - its not a frequency standard.  Over the
short term, they do parts to the 10x6.  Only over 60,000 seconds they
start approaching 10-11 or 12th....

Sez the man with a rubidium standard, several crystal ovens, a few TCXOs,
and about four Oncores, and a Jupiter, IIRC.

Timing's his bag, baby.
