In timing mode, you care very much about the quantization error messages. Bob ----------------------------------------------------------------- AE6RV.com

When it is doing Binary, it mixes in NMEA. So you can see both in the serial stream. I have run the Veuus 8 in Binary and NMEA modes. The basics are in NMEA, the configuration and fancy stuff in their binary sentences. Mixing and matching is just not a problem. In timing mode you care about the PPS and that is independent of the serial stream anyway. I have two Venus 8 EVBs (NS-HP) right in front of me. They are in base/rover mode and I'm seeing CEP(50) of centi-meter relative accuracy. I do not have a timing version, but I can believe at least 50% of the time it would be very stable. Like all GPS it does go on drunken excursions now and then. The accuracy is so good it exceeds the math accuracy of my scatter plot program. Working on recoding that now.
