[time-nuts] 1PPS users?

One thing I've never really understood is who actually uses the high-quality 1PPS output from a GPSDO. I have spent a lot of time, effort, and money on developing my GPSDO without a whole of thought to the user base. It was just a quest for the best result I could obtain with a particular technology. The frequency standard users was a no brainer. Everyone who wants a frequency standard eventually understands they need to get a GPSDO, or an Rb, or a Cs. And that's all I thought I had: a good frequency standard. And then Tom prodded me a bit and showed me the shortcomings of what I was doing, and I did something about it. So, if an NTP user can get his time fix directly from a noisy receiver, who actually needs a time-accurate, low jitter 1PPS pulse?
