Do you mean "XL-DC"?  I have one, and I used to get NMEA out of it for
ntpd.  ntpd decoded the NMEA just fine, starting in 1997 or so (on a
sparc IPX running NetBSD)

Are you getting NMEA but finding it deficient?   Or not getting NMEA?

It is possible NMEA was an option; Truetime and the XL series seems to
have lots of options.  (Mine has 1 PPS and a 10 MHz out.)
