My Tymserve 2100 gps unit (Rev 4.1) thinks it's 1995 -- September 17, 1995.
But a restart (connect via telnet and give the commands util restart) brings it back to the correct time and date -- for a while? I haven't caught it dropping back, so i don't know if it's doing this on the hour, after an hour, or what, but I noticed it last night, and I've restarted it a few times today.
Any clues?
I know about the off-by-a-second issue with the pending leap second. This one is more interesting!
So far I've just been issuing software restarts. The next time I'll power cycle the sucker and see if that does any good.
GPS signal isn't the issue; the 2100 shares an external GPS antenna with my Thunderbolts through a Symmetricom 58536A GPS splitter, and the Thunderbolts are as happy as a Thunderbolt can be.
cheers
