Stu, Thanks for the heads up. If you can leak anything from the upcoming paper please let us know. Since you're an Iridium expert, would you be able to answer the question? The OP (John Todd) was asking about reception deep indoors, where GPS signals fail. In case you deleted it, the posting

JT, You say GPS isn't available 'often'. Can you define 'often'? As in not at some locations, or as in GPS signal is only available now and then temporally? If the latter, any GPS timing unit with decent holdover should solve the issue. If the former, well, you've gotten some replies on that.

What is interesting is I spent a little time on the Manufactures Web Site and could find no AD or PN specs. So even if you can find the down converter antenna, you have no idea how well it will perform. I imagine it has a something like an Oscilloquartz 8663. No doubt as with almost all RS

Bob - Thank you for reference to the Synergy SSR-6T. I talked to Gina at Synergy early today. The Synergy SSR-6T is still available, but now at the regular price of $68.20 The Synergy SSR-6T GPS receiver would likely not be appropriate for usage in the Lucent KS-24361, since it does

Hi The (likely) biggest issue with the M12 clone boards is that they are 12 channel. The report strings have more satellites in them than the old 8 channel boards did. That’s going to mess up the parsing algorithms if you want the REF-0 to work with all the data (record the sat info vs ignore

I believe that like a lot of the Meinberg receivers that this uses a down converter to give an IF frequency of 35.4 MHz. If you don't have the converter that apparently isn't included with the receiver you have a $300 paperweight. You might want to check with the seller before bidding. -Arthur
