Nice try, but that's not how it's done. They put in an extra second in the last minute of the day. 23:59:59 23:59:60 00:00:00 Humm. Isn't that backwards. Don't you want to remove a pulse? Inserting a leap-second is equivalent to stopping the clock for a tick. I suppose you could setup a microprocessor that listened to the text and mask out a pulse at the right time. That would delay the PPS pulse by the prop time through an AND gate so we could come up with time-nut level schemes to fix that. Or you could just wait for the next leap second and stick your finger in the works at the right time. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
