I use ground from the com port and it works OK.

The one requirement of the PPS signal is that it has to be positive
going on the leading edge, and the duration must be at least 1/Hz
seconds long -- so if you have HZ=100, you need at least 10ms pulse
width. Most GPS PPS signals are plenty long enough, but there are some
that are much shorter -- that's where the FatPPS comes in.

The Clock-Block is shipping now (they just arrived at the TAPR office
and the initial orders have been sent out). The first batch of FatPPS
is also in production, and I expect we'll start advertising and shipping
those in two or three weeks.
