I had a question about the TCXO GPSDO module for the B200/B210.  I am 
interested in using it without a gps lock as a better clock than the tcxo that 
is internal to the bare board.  I am only interested in frequency stability, 
not time of day.   If I did use it in this way, I had a few questions:

1)   The spec on it says that it is 75ppb over temperature in unlock condition. 
 That is the only data point I can find about using it unlocked.  Do you have 
any better numbers on what should be expected for frequency stability cold 
booting the device without ever giving it any gps if I select my reference 
source as external?
2)   Is the ref_locked sensor value for aligning the GPSDO to a gps reference?  
Can I skip the ref locked check if I am not using gps?
3)   I believe I read somewhere that the GPSDO uses the same 10MHz lines as the 
REF in.  What happens if I have a 10Mhz source hooked up while the gpsdo module 
is installed when I do not have a gps lock?  What would happen if a 10Mhz input 
was hooked up while I did have a gps lock?
