Fransisco:
The GPSDO option comes with an external antenna. It does work reasonably
well if you have a clear view of the sky. Please follow the instructions
in the hardware manual for proper placement. If you decide you need a
better antenna, I've had good luck with several Marine GPS
In the 6700 rear panel views, I don't see any input for an external
10 MHz GPS reference. I already have a Trimble Thunderbolt unit I use
with my 5000 and would like to use it with a 6700.
Do I have to get the Flex GPS option to get GPS stability?

Hi Jerry:
The 6700 has an external 10 MHz input on the rear panel. It is an RCA jack
on the upper left
side of the RCA jack cluster on the rear of the radio.
Input level specs are +4 dBm (1.0V) minimum, to +15 dBm maximum.
If you would like to download the hardware reference manual for this
I must say an RCA jack, instead of an RF tight connector, like a SMA or even
BNC is kind of GM cheap.
I know thet were good enough for HeathKit, but this is a FLEX!

And the external GPS can be used with present software, right?

Input level
Jerry:
Yes.
When the radio boots, the current software will auto-detect the presence of
an external 10 MHz
reference input that is above the minimum input level and use it instead of
the internal OCXO (6700)
or internal TCXO (6500).
It does this at boot time, so if you apply the 10 MHz input
Thanks, Graham
