Mark: I don't have a PPS syncable PRS-10 yet, but will probably be getting one within a year or so. My expectations are not great, however, because I already know that the received GPS time has diurnal wiggles to the tune of up to 10's of nsec p-p. And I also know that the PRS-10 (and probably

I would be curious to hear from those who have a GPS disciplined PRS 10 in their home time labs. I was never that impressed with the performance of one of mine in that configuration from a 10 MHz ADEV perspective (I did try making a few parameter changes.) I ended up essentially free running

Hi You have a lot of stuff that runs off of GPS L1. Any “common mode” issues (like ionospheric disturbances) will propagate into all of them. What impact that has on each one is very much a “that depends” sort of thing. The firmware and filtering quickly get into the act …. They all will wander,

Hi guys I want a stable & reliable frequency standard. I do NOT have a cesium beam. I DO have a lot of gpsdos and some rubidiums. Since I have one PRS-10 and this device has a 1 pps input, you already know what I'm thinking... What I have: Trimble Thunderbolt Trimble UCCM Symmetricom
