NMEA sentences are emitted when ever the receiver is able to get around to it (i.e. some where within each second). The PPS (Pulse Per Second) signal is emitted at the top of each second, usually within a few micro-seconds of UTC. -- Steve Kostecke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> NTP Public Services Project - http://support.ntp.org/ _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
