[time-nuts] Lucent CDMA Reference Question

[Bill Hawkins]

Have we settled the question of whether or not the RB can
be dominated (no, that's not it) disciplined by an external
1 PPS or 10 MHz signal?

If it can, I'd load up on Rb units and discipline them with
a modern GPS receiver - or maybe replace the OXCO in Z3801s.

Z3801s do dissipate about 50 watts, though.

If you get the Rb unit by itself, all you have is an Rb oscillator;
it depends on the XO unit for GPS.  So, if I were to get only one,
I'd get the XO.
