    You need the time indication to figure out which second boundary the PPS 
signal is referring to. But once you are accurate to much less than half a 
second, the PPS is far more accurate than a time indication sent over RS232. 
This is especially true with GPS receivers that don't specify the 
relationship between the RS232 time output and the UTC second boundary, and 
most don't.
