[time-nuts] Z3801A with other GPS receiver

[Javier]

Hello,

If it uses the Motorola propietary commands, a M12 should be quite 
compatible. I think a have somewhere some older documentation about the 
@@ commands used in the 8-channel GPSs, but I think that they are quite 
the same for all Motorola GPSs.

Regards,

Javier, EA1CRB
