Keith - IF you use Lady Heather software, with your Trimble Thunderbolt, the Date Correction is handled in PC software.
The original Trimble Thunderbolts (Red) have the WNRO issue. http://www.ke5fx.com/tbolt.htm User Manual, version 5.0 http://www.leapsecond.com/pages/tbolt/Thunderbolt-2003-11.pdf 911 Centers around USA found this problem in 2017, causing short panic, since Trimble did not have sufficient inventory of Thunderbolt E models. Trimble offers NO firmware updates or correction for the issue. “Buy our Thunderbolt® E GPS Disciplined Clock” (Blue Label model). https://www.trimble.com/Timing/thunderbolt-e.aspx greg w9gb === Message: 4 Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2020 11:46:06 -0500 From: "Keith E. Brandt, MD, MPH" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Subject: [time-nuts] Incorrect date on Thunderbolt Apologies if this equine has been flagellated, but I wasn't pulling up anything in searches. I pulled my Thunderbolt out of mothballs this week. It initialized and started tracking satellites very nicely, but the date is showing '16Nov00'. The day has incremented at UTC midnight the past 2 days and the time is accurate. Is this a known issue? Suggestions on correcting?
