Thanks, Chris. For my systems, one millisecond would probably be acceptable, and one microsecond is probably at least one order of magnitude better than I need. However, the benefit of being able to use a unit in the roof-space or, perhaps, near a window with a view of less than half the sky, would far outweigh an accuracy reduction from hundreds of nanoseconds to a microsecond. There may be others with similar restrictions on outside antenna mounting. Nice looking units, though.
