Hello [ZAR]

I've asked while at UCC and no so far. I was interested in the mitch GPS
modules as an alternative time sync but the datasheet on those says the 1PPS
is not suitable for time sync. Seems odd because the time sync boards of old
accepted that the PPS signal would jitter. Not sure why this one would be
different.
