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.
Cheers,
David
