  2. Re: GPS 1PPS, phase lock vs frequency lock, design (Bob kb8tq) Hi The TBolt is a very unique design. It directly uses code phase information against the OCXO. The net result is really no different than the “correction message” approach, but it is a different implementation. Since you

Hi all, it's been a while since I visited.  I am venturing into an unfamiliar area from my usual low phase noise PLL, OCXO and microwave synthesizer design endeavors. I recall there are some knowledgeable, well, time nuts on this list and hope you'll indulge some questions and maybe direct me
