That sounds good but have you figured out how to implement this?    Exactly
what data will you pass and you would have to add sensors to get some of it
and then you would also have to translate what your GPS is sending and put
it into Trimble's format.  This is over all harder than building the GPSDO.
   Then to use it you'd need a Windows PCs with a serial interface do you
really want your gPSDO to be feathered to a PC?
