I just power cycled mine. It came back correct without setting the date. I've assumed there is a tiny battery on the GPS board and that it is very old by now so it may not last very long. The first try was only a few seconds. I tried again, waiting longer. Maybe a minute but I didn't time it. It worked again. ----- There seem to be two internal versions of time. I have a hack that asks for the time, then displays a status page, the sleeps for a while in a loop. The T2 time is different from the status page time. It also looks like the status page time is a second or two behind. # T22016090900002893+0143 >> Power-up: GPS acquisition Holdover Uncertainty Tracking: 0 Not Tracking: 6 UTC 11:59:56 [?] 01 Jan 2007 # T22016090900005893+0146 >> Power-up: GPS acquisition Holdover Uncertainty Tracking: 0 Not Tracking: 6 UTC 12:00:09 [?] 01 Jan 2007 # T22016090900012893+0144 >> Power-up: GPS acquisition Holdover Uncertainty Tracking: 0 Not Tracking: 6 UTC 12:00:39 [?] 01 Jan 2007 # T22016090900015893+0147 >> Power-up: GPS acquisition Holdover Uncertainty Tracking: 0 Not Tracking: 6 UTC 12:01:09 [?] 01 Jan 2007 # T22016090900022893+0145 >> Power-up: GPS acquisition Holdover Uncertainty Tracking: 1 Not Tracking: 7 UTC 03:28:35 [?] 09 Sep 2016 # T22016090900025893+0148 >> Power-up: coarse freq adj [TI -95.91 ms] Holdover Uncertainty Tracking: 2 Not Tracking: 6 UTC 03:29:04 [?] 09 Sep 2016 # T22016090900032763+0142 >> Power-up: fine freq adj [TI +101.0 ns] Holdover Uncertainty Tracking: 3 Not Tracking: 5 UTC 03:29:34 [?] 09 Sep 2016 # T22016090900035763+0145 >> Power-up: phase alignment [TI +128.0 ns] Holdover Uncertainty Tracking: 4 Not Tracking: 4 UTC 03:30:04 [?] 09 Sep 2016 # T22016090903303241+003C >> Locked to GPS: stabilizing frequency TFOM 4 FFOM 1 Tracking: 4 Not Tracking: 4 UTC 03:30:31 09 Sep 2016 # T22016090903310241+003A >> Locked to GPS: stabilizing frequency TFOM 4 FFOM 1 Tracking: 3 Not Tracking: 5 UTC 03:31:01 09 Sep 2016 # T22016090903313241+003D >> Locked to GPS: stabilizing frequency TFOM 4 FFOM 1 Tracking: 3 Not Tracking: 6 UTC 03:31:31 09 Sep 2016 # T22016090903320241+003B >> Locked to GPS: stabilizing frequency TFOM 4 FFOM 1 Tracking: 3 Not Tracking: 6 UTC 03:32:01 09 Sep 2016 # T22016090903323241+003E >> Locked to GPS: stabilizing frequency TFOM 4 FFOM 1 Tracking: 3 Not Tracking: 6 UTC 03:32:31 09 Sep 2016 # T22016090903330231+003B >> Locked to GPS: stabilizing frequency TFOM 3 FFOM 1 Tracking: 3 Not Tracking: 6 UTC 03:33:01 09 Sep 2016 -- These are my opinions.
