It's not hard to hook up a more stable 10 MHz oscillator to the Novatel 
Superstar II. There is PCB foot-print for it and you need to move a 
component (don't recall if it is a resistor or cap) to enable it.

Get the message ID #21 and use the clock bias and clock drift measures 
to steer the oscillator. It should be trivial to setup a FLL/PLL PI loop 
and steer a DAC.

The PPS may still need some processing.

I've intended to do this for ages, but never got off the ground.

Cheers,
Magnus
