You can prototype a system with off the shelf parts get a few
computers, old notebook computers, Raspburry "pI' or repurposed
routers, what ever you have. Connect a Trimble Thunderbolt GPS to
each one. Each one runs NTP. Connect them all to a isolated network.
It could be wired, WiFi or whateve

SG8002 is definitely a distributor programmable unit.
It is a digital synthesizer in a can with no effort towards clean output.
PLL? They would not bother to put a cleanup PLL in the can for the
intended microprocessor application.

Hi Hui
Yes I had the some trouble. I also thought that PicoSync II software
would work with the older PicoSync but no succes.
I think it might be difficult to get software for the older PicoSync

This brings up an interesting point. There is an azimuth and a weighted

omnidirectional. The weighted display produces a heart shaped pattern
with the heart lobes to the NE/SW and a pretty deep null due north.

Bob Camp bought up an interesting point,

I am using a distribution amp that separately powers the GPS antenna so did not
take this into consideration.
If you try the PAD, measure the voltage output of the pad to make

AMU is a Trimble invented quality unit. I once heard a professor describe
it as "A Meaningless Unit".
The Tbolt can change between AMU and dBc. With your range, the Tbolt has
been switched to dBC, it is not showing AMUs.
Approaching 50 with your high elevation SVs is excellent. You have

I don't think those requirements are hard. You can build a system
that works in three cases
1) GPS is available full time
2) GPS is available intermittently.
3) there is not GPS system, world war III has destroyed it.
I think what you want is a system that is failure tolerant and can
