Re: [time-nuts] Motorola GPS + 5 MHz oscillator ?
Thanks Bruce, I guess I have been away from the GPS timing sector for too long. I'm sure I will hear from Rick...

Re: [time-nuts] Motorola GPS + 5 MHz oscillator ?
Bill, This one of the old Motorola "Basic" receivers. Is it in a plastic box or an aluminum one? Doesn't matter, just curious. Many years ago I created a PDF version of the old VP command set which is supported by the Basic. I think Jason Rabel has a copy on his website. Jason, are you out there? Can't remember your URL. For instant gratification I would recommend you download TAC32 from Rick Hambly's website:www.cnssystems.com (I think it is on the TAPR site too. TAC32 will automatically go through all of the messages on power-up needed to identify the receiver. Once you know that we can make a pretty good guess on which commands it will support. It's also a quick way to see if the receiver even functions.

I have a friend who has two of the surplus (telephone Co. ?) timing receivers. That use a Motorola (A111219115) GPS receiver and a ovenized 5 MHz oscillator It has external connectors for 5 MHz., 1 PPS, -48Volts, RS232, and the Antenna. He has the matching Antenna which is marked 5 Volt and looks like it has a helix inside. What I want to do is get one of them running so I need to find the correct commands to set the Lat and Long. and read the status messages. Anyone recognize this equipment?

Can you get some photos so we can try to recognise it?
