  What are the stability and accuracy of these devices in parts
  per billion (10^12)?  For 80 bucks you're not going to get a
  rubidium or cesium standard, and zero-beating WWV will only
  give you 1 part in 10^7 for a one-second measurement.

  (Pardon my cynicism - my former network frequency standard
  needed something like 1 part in 10^12 to do the job right.)
