Hi
Oh, you mean like my ever trusty color burst sub-carrier reference....
Or my Omega receiver ....
Or my Loran C box....
Hopefully they will keep GPS running long enough for me to find something to compare it to.

For me, the answer to "why a TBolt" was "it automatically calibrates itself against somebody else's well-maintained cesium beam oscillator that I didn't have to pay for", along with "(presumably) low phase-noise OCXO output", which interests me for radio-related applications. I might have chosen a different kind of reference for a different application.
