John: I missed this on its intro to the group. Great paper and effort. It's also a very useful intro/primer to measurement methodology beyond application to only the u-blox family. Thanks for leveraging the NSF for our benefit!

In 2020 I did an extensive evaluation of the timing ability of the
u-blox LEA-M8F, NEO-M8N, NEO-M8T, NEO-M9N, ZED-F9P, and ZED-F9T.  The
work was made possible by support from the HamSci consortium
(https://hamsci.org) under NSF grants supporting HamSci activities.

I was sure I'd posted about the paper on time-nuts, but I can't find any
record that I did, so this is a belated announcement.  It's available
for download from

As BobC says, "Lots of fun!"

Neat.

For a project I might eventually get back to I was looking at using the
M8F controlling an external oscillator. I built a test board[1], but I
stopped once I had the GPS working, I can't recall if I even enabled the
control of the external oscillator, but I certainly didn't make any
attempt to characterize it.

Once I get my frequency datalogging issue solved for my other project I
might try and see what I get.

supporting components are all in the bottom-left.
