[time-nuts] GPS for use with NTP server?

I'm going to assemble an NTP sever.    I have a suitable computer that
actually has both a serial and parallel port that I can connect a 1PPS
signal to.

I have a question about the GPS recever requirements.  Realistically
what level of accuracy is required of the 1PPS signal?  The reason I
ask is because I can buy a Motorola UT+ OnCore for about $15, the
CW12+ for about double the and a new CW12 for a maybe $90.  My hunch
is that the specs on the older UT+ are more than enough the NTP which
operats at the microsecond level.
