Nice idea. I do have a couple of M12+T, so I could try, but they are not pin or voltge compatable with the VP so it might require some surgery. However I do have a couple of UT+ which are and it should be a drop in replacement. They are pretty much command compatible aswell and may be able to

Just realized that if the Z3801A uses Sawtooth correction from the Oncore, then it may slightly degrade the 1PPS from the M12+ unless there is a way to disable sawtooth correction. Nonetheless, I think the overall performance would improve significantly, even if the M12+ sawtooth correction
