[time-nuts] Re: GPS antenna question

[Dana Whitlow]

I think there might be a down side to using more sensitive GNSS receivers,
which is
that such a receiver will be willing to include more impaired signals in
its time and/or
position solutions, leading to poorer overall accuracy.

Does anybody know?

I certainly concur that good antenna siting is very important, much more so
than
worrying about a few inches of sway in the mount.
