[time-nuts] Can (will) a M12+T generate a negative sawtooth message ?

[Azelio Boriani]

As you can tell from the manual, the M12+ and the M12M will output a
signed -128..+127ns correction from the @@Hn message. In my opinion
you have to start from a fixed delay (an offset) in order to apply the
negative correction. I already have the Dallas/Maxim delay line but
still not used it.
