Just noticed by accident if you have a small screen mode if you click on the
top of the screen and drag it up above the top of the monitor and release the
mouse button it will change to full screen mode. Learn something new every day!

COFS is the clock offset value (whatever that is). Heather has plots for four
receiver provided values. One the Thunderbolt these were the OSCillator

mostly looks like noise). On other receivers the plots are assigned

Being playing round with Lady heather 5.0 (really impressed) and my Jupiter-T
receiver using Zodiac mode. But what is COFS. Can not find anything in the help
or on the internet. Is it short for something?
I did notice a couple bugs relating to rounding off. If I set the elevation

And pretty much any of these will ingest a 1pps + message, rather than,
say, a 10 MHz reference.
Why not just use the raw GPS 1pps (which is typically good to a few tens
of ns)? GPS coverage/outage and random variation in the GPS 1pps
A lot of them use a disciplined oscillator to
Probably... the manual does not go into exact details of what they are sending.

Chris,
Yes, in fact one of the first applications of hp's SmartClock was just that:

Neither format tells you what you really want to know... the actual DAC

You know, there's a reason this list is called "time-nuts" and not
"frequency-nuts" :-).
But sometimes I wonder if "phase-nuts" might be a better term.
It is so incredibly useful to put your best 1 PPS into a scope and use that
to watch for systemic effects on your second-best clock. That's why w

The vast bulk of all GPSDO’s sold over the last three decades were sold because

Hi Bob,
One thing I've never really understood is who actually uses the high-quality
1PPS output from a GPSDO.
I use it for NTP server, like many others also do around the world.

One application is advanced network diagnostics eg cards like this:
https://www.endace.com/endace-dag-high-speed-packet-capture-cards.html
So for a 40 GbE card, time-stamping 1 kilobyte packets demands
sub-microsecond accuracy, if you want to compare at different points
in your network.
