[time-nuts] Jupiter GPS Question

Talking of which, I have been wondering if our beloved Thunderbolts
could handle WAAS/EGNOS.  I can't see any way to configure the current
software - doubtless an upgrade would be required, but does the
hardware have the capability? Does anybody have any thoughts?

     TTFN,

           Peter
