Re: [time-nuts] GPS with 10KHz output

[Anthony Stirk]

Additional information :

The Ublox NEO-6T divides their internal 48MHz clock down so 10Mhz doesn't
divide correctly and is jittery but 8Mhz is fine.

Re: [time-nuts] GPS with 10KHz output

[Anthony Stirk]

Just as a note you can reconfigure the time pulse output any of the Ublox
modules (doesn't have to be the timing module) via commands to give out a
pulse up to :

7 Series :0.25 Hz … 10 MHz
NEO-6G/Q/M/P/V : 0.25 Hz to 1 kHz
NEO-6T :0.25 Hz to 10 MHz

Don't know if this helps anyone.

Cheers,

Anthony

Re: [time-nuts] Req: Decent GPS Antenna Active/PassiveRecommendation

[Anthony Stirk]

Hi John,

I've found as long as the module has lock the level of timing isn't going
to change so you can use anything really (heck we even us ceramic chip
antennas on some boards). For outside use any active automotive patch
should be fine but keep the lead as short as possible. Again I don't
believe the antenna actually needs to be outside the NEO-6T modules will
give timing with just one satellite so as long as you can get a lock
indoors you should be fine.

I run a pair of chinese magnetic patch antennas indoors (on top my bench
PSU) in the window.

Cheers,

Anthony M0UPU

Re: [time-nuts] GPS choices.

[Anthony Stirk]

Bear with me as I'm currently in hospital but I am selling 6T's and MAX7Q's 
which are 10hz. I have break outs etc
More when I'm out of here
