And if anyone is interested, they gave us the option to permanently disable any sync source. So if you have a 450AP and the on-board GPS is flaky because of view or whatever, you can turn it off for good.

I'm wondering if anyone else has seen SM sessions go idle when AutoSync switches sources? That's not supposed to happen and this seems to be new to 13.2. I have 450APs that will log a transition from on-board to timing port (immediate switch) and any SMs that are moving more than just a little bit of traffic will lose session.

Also, I've mentioned this before, and to Aaron quite a bit (probably annoyingly often) that 450APs will boot up using the on-board GPS first if there's timing port pulse available. If you have the power port pulse available, it will use that, so it seems to be only on-board + timing port. And then the on-board GPS sucks, so refer to above when it drops out and switches to another source and sessions drop.

What I think we ultimately need is for the on-board GPS to work like free-run mode. If the power port or timing port pulse is present, good, use one of those, and if they fail then switch to on-board if it's available, but switch back to power port or timing port when it comes back. That's my opinion.
