Hi Bob,
Here are a couple of HP Appnotes, in PDF form, that will get you started
in your quest. Some of the references to standard frequency
transmissions may be somewhat outdated but the overall data is still
valid. The first one is the original publication done in the early
1960's and the next two are a rewrite done in the 1970's.

http://www.ko4bb.com/Manuals/05)_GPS_Timing/The_Science_Of_Timekeeping.pdf
And finally, here is an appnote about counters, generally, that is worth
reading
http://www.ko4bb.com/Manuals/HP_Agilent/HP_AN200_frequency_counters_1997.pdf
There are plenty of other publications, but no need to overload you too
early in the game. The stuff above will give you a basic understanding
of the fundementals of which your questions to this list are centered omn.

My TS-940S acts as though it receives okay at 60 kHz. Not great sensitivity
but it does receive.
Most HP GPS receivers are expensive ($400?). I was hoping to get some results
with what I have, although I'm willing to cobble up some circuitry.
I assume if I can receive the signal, I can figure out how to decode it and/or
use it as is. How does one use a 1 pps signal to get precise frequency
measurement? Maybe use it as a time base for a counter? My counter has 1 pps
as well as 0.1 pps for 10-second count. I would assume signal fading would
cause some timing uncertainty due to finite rise and fall time. And at 60 kHz
I think rise and fall time would be long.
I will look through the archives.

Neat. Thanks. How many effective bits? (when the input signal is 60 KHz it
that matters)
Can somebody give me a lesson in the tradeoffs between number of bits and
sampling rate?
I know of one special case. If your ADC is only 1 bit, you don't have to
worry about AGC.
