What do they need for accuracy?

Some of the radio astronomy people are world class time nuts.  All the VLBI 
stations have a Hydrogen Maser.

Don't forget the delay through your radio.  You can avoid that by injecting 
the PPS it a spare channel and using that for the low bits of the time stamp.  
You need something else to number the seconds.  Plan B is use the PPS to keep 
your system clock close to UTC and correct for the delay by measuring it once 
and assume it doesn't change much.
