I have four home-built clocks, each using a Raspberry Pi, all with slightly
different designs, all running gpsd and ntpd (so all are NTP servers on my home
network). Three are GPS disciplined; one is WWVB disciplined. Two of the GPS
clocks use the modem-control lines on a serial port for the
I’ve built several small home-brew NTP servers using a Raspberry Pi,
a GPS receiver, and an LCD display. Most of them are desk clocks.
My favorite one (and the biggest money sink) is a mantle clock in my
living room that incorporates a chip-scale cesium “atomic clock”.

I’d investigate whether there was an Android “World Clock” app whose display
had your requirements, then buy an Android tablet in your price range and with
the appropriate form factor. (I like the “World Clock” app on my iPhone, but
I’ve never encountered a cheap iPhone.)

I’ve never used any of these devices on Windows - all my GNSS work
Folks:
I’ve been doing a lot of SW work using the U-blox ZED-F9P chip over the past
few months. Being a SW guy, I try to minimize the amount of breadboarding and
HW integration I have to do.
For several months most of my work has been using the SimpleRTK2B board from
Ardusimple in Barcelona
even more.

Well blow me down. It took some Google Maps fu on the web on my part, but
my time and place does indeed coincide with this “GPS Interference Testing” at

GPS jamming and spoofing isn't really my area of expertise, but it's something
I worry about, not just for its impact on geolocation and navigation
applications, but also because GPS has become critical as a high precision
timing reference in the telecommunications realm, which *is* my
This summer, somewhat coincidentally, I got to take a tour of some of the NIST
Time and Frequency Division, rode my motorcycle up to Fort Collins to see the
WWVB antennas, and attended the NIST 43rd Annual Time & Frequency Seminar. I
