Thanks for the replies. I think this will make a very nice clock for my
lab, though before I relegate it to a shelf I plan to replace the battery
pack and experiment with the performance. I especially like the features
for syncing it precisely to an external source. After a month or two of the

Hi
What you bought is a really cool “clock trip” style time transfer standard. You
sync it up to the “reference clock” and hop in the car. Drive off to the remote
site and use it to adjust the “remote clock” to the correct time.
Very useful back in those days, if you needed to keep a bunch of
We used them as time transfer standards to sync the clocks at the Titan missile
sites to the clock at the host base. The sequence was clock sync at the host
base, travel to the site, sync the site clock, return to base and check timing
error. If the error exceeded x, repeat until the error was
The manual describes it as a time transfer standard. It is equipped with NiCd
batteries to facilitate operation of the unit while in transit, as well as the
provision for external DC in.

It has some nice features like slew for the 1pps and would guess it has

Add to that the fact that not everybody is moving at an inch per year. Around
here the magic number
is in the 1.5 to 2 mm per year range. It’s enough to be worth correcting survey
results vs benchmarks
every few years. It’s not enough to get into an L1 timing system any time soon

Hi Bob,
You only need a survey if your timing receiver is running in zero-D mode. If
you move the antenna more than some practical threshold you should adjust the
fixed position or maybe just do another survey.
If you plan to move a lot, or if your application is mobile, or are on a

Best guess is that you will get down below 1x10^-9 fairly soon. That will let

Timing people account for everything that's important. A continental drift of
an inch per year acts like a slow phase change over time, which by definition,
is a frequency offset. So an inch per year is at most 1/12 * 1e-9 / (365*86400)
or 3e-18. For the current precision with which

Hi
If you happen to *need* precise time on a moving platform, then GPS can
do that as well. There are a number of military systems that have this need.
There are also some things like mobile direction finding by TDOA that have
multiple use cases.

How is this achieved? Is there a coupled dead-reckoning system that updates
the timing location, or something else?

Tom says 'almost'.
In a static location you can improve your timing results by establishing your
antenna position as good as possible. It will work almost as good without a
survey.
In a moving scenario you can of cause not do a survey. But try finding another
way to do time transfer
Tom said: The nice thing about GPS, unlike other time transfer methods, is
that can handle the case of a moving antenna. As the antenna moves so does the

as on top of your house.

If I was going to do it today, I’d do an “all in view” solution with GPS /

motion, the location

Hi BobS,
No need for dead-reckoning -- GPS gives you the location. And the time.
Take a step back and remember how GPS works. You have sats flying above that

Hi Tom,
I'm not sure what you mean by this 0D vs 3D. I'm using an LEA-6T. There are
