Hi all,
Some of you know from my prior threads that I've been debating what GPS
to buy to upgrade from my USB based BU-353. I think I've just about
nailed it down, based on a number of conflicting factors.
I'm getting + / - 6 ms accuracy now with the BU-353. My goals for the
new device are

I may try pulling the signal directly from the PPS directly to DCD as
you describe. If it works, the procedure might be a bit simpler. By
the way, are the data lines on the serial port of the Sure board running
at standard RS-232 levels?

In general, it won't. The problem is the PPSAPI DCD timestamping

Again, almost no serial ports need this. They work fine off TTL level.
While it is true that the standards say -5 to 5 V almost all accept
0-5V. Now you can try it, and if it does not work, then go for the two
wire solution.

Interesting that you used a metal box. I guess it doesn't matter since
the antenna is external. I think a clear lid might be cool to see the
lights.
The blue LED is so bright you will want to hide it! A metal

You can buy a serial port adaptor card are that fits in a PCI slot.
