The IRIG Time Code Generator used is from ITS (GPS/IRIG B Time Code 
Generator/Reader, Model 6115G), and it outputs an IRIG-B time code signal which 
does not have the year embedded in it, so it's pre-2004 standard.

We have a CNIC-A2P3 board installed in a Compact PCI chassis.

I built the instrumentation package when it was still Condor Engineering around 
the 2007-08 timeframe.
