So, I've been working on a document with several columns:

Radio Type - the name/model of the radio.
Timing Port Sync (checkbox) - Does the radio support 'traditional' sync via
the timing port?
Aux Port Sync (checkbox)  - Does the radio support newer 'aux port' sync
via the aux port?
uGPS-style power output - Can the radio provide power on the timing or Aux
Port for a GPS receiver?
Canopy Style Sync  - Does the radio support traditional 'interrupt the
power' sync via the power port.?
Cambium Style Sync - Does the radio support the newer 'interrupt the power'
sync via the power port?
Voltage range supported
Pinout required (i.e. which pins are positive, which are negative, etc) -
most of this I know for all of the radios.
Other notes.

I've gotten as far as the 4-5 lines I know (newer 100PMP, 320/430PMP,
450PMP, 450iPMP, ePMP, maybe 1-2 others).  A lot of them I used to know
(like when did the 100 series start supporting uGPS power?) but don't
anymore.

My intent has been to get a few more radios on it and then send it out to
the lists to help me finish it up.  But since this came up I figured it was
as good of a time as any to ask for the help.  Unfortunately, I don't have
the document ready in a form I can send (it's on a paper notepad by my
computer that I'm not near right now), but since it's pretty easy to
describe I figure I should be able to just ask...

So if anyone would like to contribute one or more rows to this document ...
I.E. describe the sync and/or power status for a given radio, that would be
helpful.   I'm pretty good with the AP's, but as nick mentioned - the PTP
variants are all hard to keep track of.
