My interest is I have a totally new way of locking to the 1PPS pulse that should improve the performance dramatically. The question is would it also work with a 100Hz signal. The answer is yes. It would also work with a 10KHz signal, but this would require a bit more horsepower. I was planning on using a simple inexpensive microprocessor for everything but I don't know if it would be fast enough to do 10KHz. But there's not many of those around anymore, are there?
