One other delay contributor would appear to be processing delay in the

The GPS nav messages is synchronized to the seconds, so it's a matter of

Thanks, Jim.
I assume that neither the satellite nor the receiver knows what the
variation in the light time delay is, so it must be small enough to allow
the claimed nanosecond accuracy of the PPS edge.
Well.. that's the difference between a L1 only and a L1/L2 receiver.

Hi
Actually they do know a bit about the light delay. They include that data in
the information the stat's broadcast. The data is fairly coarse grained. I
posted some links a week or so back that go into all the grubby details.
Coarse grain is certainly
Hi nuts,

Is it the position of the antenna, it could be 100m (300ft) away from me

Does this mean that while the antenna feedline cable length does not
influence the measured position (at the phase center of the antenna), and it
does not influence the accuracy of a disciplined frequency reference output,
it does introduce an error into the absolute time output (i.e., adding
