When reading "unruh"'s messages I don't get the impression he is a professional timekeeper who has put a significant amount of lifetime in this subject. E.g. when I read his advise to someone at a research vessel trying to synchronize to a professional timing device to "just hang a garmin GPS receiver out of a porthole" I think he is just a student with no professional experience at all. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
