Hi Bert,

I am posting these questions to the list, maybe the Q/A will help 
someone else.

I got my gps disciplined oscillator working last night, (maybe the answers
will become self evident later.)

GPS Control box questions
---------------------------
1) What's the purpose of the "Parameter Read Back" button when data is
updated every 31 seconds anyway?

2) Can I change data in the "DAC Value Coarse" box?

3) It appears that entered values only get updated when the "Seconds Until
Next Update" clock drops below 16.  What's happening during the 31 to 17
second time frame?

4) Why would I want to clear the "Time Stamp Counter?"

Plot Utility
----------
1) The graphing utility is a bit cryptic.  Does it only graph DAC values?

Thanks for the great project Bert!!!

Regards,
