Thanks all for their comments on this topic.
Over the weekend I spent much time messing about with the NTP stuff and
the NMEAGps application.
NMEAGps does just as described and does make a nice IRIG-B signal
through a PC's sound card. Unfortunately you cannot specifiy which of
several
Would Virtual Audio Cable (VAC) software provide the routing neccessary
for your application ?

Paul,

whatever hacks will make it useful.
Thanks,

Justin,
I might think quite a few time Nuts have these.
So making progress have build a gps sat message decoder for the GPRMC
sentence that gives time and data. I believe most GPS units put that
sentence out. Have it decoding time and next is date. Maybe tonight.
Then I have to glue this code into
There are also a lot of GPS hockey pucks that send the NMEA codes
to map software in a laptop that are rapidly becoming obsolete.
NMEA is adequate for the 468 display.
Have three of them, to go with three NIB (except for the manual)
DC 468 receivers. Don't need any of them.

Well indeed progress the dc468 is now sync'ing to gps on start.
Have a dirty fudge factor to get the seconds exactly synced. Don't like it
but does work.
Did try to use hex as a month indicator and that did not work.
As an example Nov would be A and Dec B. But looking at the driver ckts its
