Hi

It’s just like the other uBlox modules (and just like the F9T …) the external 
input is a once a second time stamper with an 8 ns resolution (just like the 
+/- 4 ns on the sawtooth ….). One would *guess* they are using the same 
free running / TCXO clock for both the PPS out and the timestamp coming in.

On the F9P, I have been unable to change the settings for TIMEPULSE2...  maybe the F9P does not actually support it even though is is mentioned in the docs.   Sparkfun has their SPARKX division that does short runs of boards that are experimental or not mass-market devices... they might do an F9T that way.  Maybe some time-nut suggestions will influence them to do a F9T.
