Bill, My question was more generally about any GPSDO, but it's good to know about the Motorola/Lucent.
What about this scenario - the GPSDO has a fixed position on initial powerup, but then it is moved periodically or even continuously, without updating the GPS coordinates. The distance from the original coordinates could be anywhere from close by, to across the state. Periodically, a new survey could be run to keep things from getting too far out in left field. At some point, I'll have to do some field testing, but I wanted to get the list wisdom first.
