The Z12 was apparently available in a timing version the Z12-T. But both
are long gone from the product lineup of Ashtech/ThalesNaviation/Magellan.
Anyone know the difference between Z12-T and the normal Z12?

Not that there would be any difference wrt the time transfer method
between a surverying Z12 and the later Ashtech receivers, or high-end
Trimble, Novatel, Javad, Topcon, Septentrio, etc receivers.
