The pps on that unit is good. Compares favorably to the ublox6T. I can't say how favorably.
I am working on quantifying its pps as compared to my 2 fury units and the ublox 6T. Awaiting a 8 antenna splitter, and dso. Have another trick up my sleeve but need a Linux kernel hacker. I don't want to go down another rabbit hole if I can avoid it.
