It was added to the broadcast signal as an after-thought, as a separate upgrade package if you wish. At least back then, I believe they had USNO to measure the GPS time and provide corrections to match up with USNO UTC scale. It makes sense that they still do that. The publish differences is really just a hand-full of ns. The GPS time is to be maintained within +/- 1 us of the USNO UTC time-scale according to original setup.

Does anyone has any more recent descriptions on this? Besides the track record being available from USNO or for that matter the BIPM.

Cheers,
