Which particular NMEA unit are you using? >Is it possible to write a parse (127,127,8,0) driver to read only the >time values and ignore the void message and thereby make it the >stratum 0 source? If your unit is doing what I think it's doing, you probably don't want to do that. The GPS unit is telling you that it doesn't really know the time, but its best guess is xxxx. Why would you want to use time that's known not to be good? It would work OK if you didn't have to coast for very long. But then your PC can coast just as well for short times, maybe even better. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
