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.
