Re: [time-nuts] Z3801A Replacement GPS Receiver
I think that there was something in an old thread that mentioned this. However, Art’s solution is the best. It will breathe new life into what has otherwise been a good GPSDO. Fortunately, In the meantime I have a Trimble look-alike as a backup so I still have a usable standard for my test gear.

Re: [time-nuts] Z3801A Replacement GPS Receiver
Hi I don’t recall any hand held version of the *timing* version of the Oncore …. Indeed with all of the roll over issues on top of the original Oncore’s limitations, shopping with Art is probably your best choice. A lot has gone on in the GPS receiver world over the last 20 years ….

Re: [time-nuts] Z3801A Replacement GPS Receiver
Hello, The 1024 Week Roll-Over date for the last of the 6 channel VP Oncore receivers was in December 2013. They would continue to operate but with an incorrect date. We want to avoid blatant commercialism here but folks should know that Synergy developed a 6 channel VP Oncore replacement that plugs into HP Z3801A and Z3805A slots. It's described here: https://synergy-gps.com/synergy-products/ssr-series-adaptor-boards-for-vp-oncore/. We're working on replacement boards 6 and 8 channel VP and UT+ Oncore receivers in other legacy instrumentation products, including those from HP, Efertom, Datum, Timing Solutions, Symmetricom, Austron and others. A lower cost, single board version (no Adaptor Board) will be available soon. The datasheet and pricing should be available in a week or so with shipments probably starting in the January/February time frame (delayed by COVID-19 and the holiday season). If there is any interest in this type of replacement product, please contact us off-list at oemi...@synergy-gps.com.

[time-nuts] Z3801A Replacement GPS Receiver
It looks like the GPS receiver in my Z3801 may have died. I'm looking for a replacement module and noticed that in the past these have been salvaged from old handheld GPS units. If I can't find the appropriate Oncore module, I might try looking for the handheld unit that contained them. Does anyone recall which units these were? Thanks.
