>used to provide
>accurate time signals to a computer network system, or single machine.  If 
>you want a REALLY
>accurate UTC clock, this will do it.  It gets its info from the GPS system 
>and can be set to your time
>zones so its always accurate.
>      In addition, it provides 10 MHz that is referenced to the GPS system 
> which gives you stability
>and accuracy that is VERY close to a rubidium standard.  I believe the 
>actual spec is 10 to the minus 9th
>or 10 to the minus 10th.  It makes a great outboard freq standard for your 
>test gear, and they are being used as a
>high stability reference for SHF work in the 10 GHz range.
>      This particular receiver is mounted in a 19" rack adapter, and I've 
> installed the power supply needed to run it.
>This receiver runs on 24 VDC (actual range on the input of the receiver is 
>19 to 30 VDC).  I've installed the
>RS-232 header connectors and jumpers on the main receiver board and built 
>the cable to get it to your computer.
>I have a copy of BD systems software to use on your computer so you can 
>program and see the output of the receiver
>on your computer, and I have the actual HP GPS antenna that was supplied 
>for the receiver.  The antenna model number is
>HP 589532A package.  That includes the antenna, cover, mast adapter and 
>all the docs new in the box.
>I know this one works, as I have been using it.  The switching power 
>supply is good for 6.5 amps and the receiver only
>draws 1.5 so you could run some other stuff off of it and there is room in 
>the cabinet to put some other stuff.  You will need to make
>a set of rack adapter brackets for the cab as they aren't there.  $475.00 
>for the whole shooting match and I'll work something
>out on the shipping.  It's not heavy, just big.  If you've been looking 
>for one of these, you know that they sell for $300 plus
>and nobody knows if they're working, 'cause they never have a PS.  You 
>don't have to guess on this box.  First guy
>here with the bucks gets the box.

Thanks!!
