Precision time novice needing help ! We have chance to upgrade
(replace) our existing TS-2100-L with a TS2100-GPS system with the
rubidium option.
What questions should we be asking the seller?
* Is there a method to determine the lamp hours from the console?
* Software vintage that corrects the 1PPS issue (or is it relevant)?
While InfoAge is a huge site, it is not a huge budget!
