     Hi Keith:
     A lot depends on what you're trying to do.
     Do you already have a counter that will make time interval
     measurements
     and if so with a lot of averaging what's the smallest time interval
     you
     can see?  Do you already have frequency standard(s) and just want
     to use
     GPS to check on them or discipline them?  The features of the TAC
     may or
     may not be a good fit to your needs.  Can you elaborate on your
     goals /
     interests / etc.?
     Have Fun,
     Brooke Clarke

   Thanks for the reply.
   I am starting from essentially nothing. The most practical use I would
   have is a primary source for NTP. Other than that, it would be
   experimenting with setting up an accurate time source.

   Goodbye cruel world that was my home-
     there's cleaner space out here to roam
   Put my feet up on the moons of Mars-
     sit back, relax, and count the stars
