G3RUH's GPSDO uses the Jupiter's 10khz output to phase lock to a 10Mhz 
OCXO divided down to 10khz in order to discipline the oscillator.

and N1JEZ has his own version of the G3RUH design:

There is a fellow on ebay selling jupiter GPS boards plus an interface 
board for a decent price called the Navman jupiter T Tu60 GPS Kit 1pps 
10khz GPS Module. He usually has an auction on the go for one and 
another listing with a "buy it now". Claims to have more than 10 and has 
already sold 100+ and will put on the type of connectors you wish.  I 
have one patiently waiting to be put in a GPSDO.
