[time-nuts] FE-5680A arrived

[Bob Camp]

Hi

If you believe that your GPS is good to < 1x10^-11 *and* that's good enough
for what you are doing - the answer is easy. If you need 10X better than
that, indeed it gets harder, but still in range for a TBolt. If you need
100X better, then it's very difficult. 

Bob

Yes, but how long do I "measure" when the two month timer goes off.  Suppose

I measure for a day.  How do I know if I got a good day or was unlucky?  
Might as well collect everything and then analyze the whole pile.
