[time-nuts] Incorrect date on Thunderbolt

[Taka Kamiya]

I'm sure it's a ROLL-OVER issue where date string buffer for date isn't long enough.  Only thing we can do is to correct it in software.  Most "stuff" such as Lady Heather knows about this and if date is unreasonable, it will correct it when displaying date.  No fundamental fix at GPS level, as far as I know.

 Apologies if this equine has been flagellated, but I wasn't pulling up 
anything in searches.

I pulled my Thunderbolt out of mothballs this week. It initialized and 
started tracking satellites very nicely, but the date is showing 
'16Nov00'. The day has incremented at UTC midnight the past 2 days and 
the time is accurate.

Is this a known issue? Suggestions on correcting?

Thanks,
Keith
