[time-nuts] GPS III

[Bob Camp]

Hi

There are papers from ION and other places detailing testing on the 
new(er) clocks. They do have quite good ADEV performance. If they 
start showing up on eBay, expect a bidding war ….

The most useful thing for an L1 user is getting the added bits into the
datastream for the epoch. That (plus ground firmware changes) will 
get rid of our roll over issues. Not much help for older product though.
