Hi, Bill,

	Thanks for the offer, but I also have a goodly number of the Datum 9300's and similar units.

	What I really need at the moment is at least a partial "turnkey" solution. Ideally, I want to fix the Odetics clock as it has been very reliable outside of the GPS receiver.

	I know if I look long enough, I'll find something.
