Dear All,

I'm looking for information on the Trimble 23198-61 GPS-Receiver. This 
is a metal case with two DB-9 connectors, a SMB antenna connection and a 
three pole power plug. If you want to see a picture, look on the webpage 
of Brooke (http://www.prc68.com/I/Trimpack.shtml#SV6)
I send an E-mail to the support desk of Trimble, but I don't expect any 
response from them :-(

I have the receiver running with TSIP (using TSIPmonitor from Trimble), 
the 1 PPS is coming out happily :-)

Funny thing, they are not Year 2000 and something compatible... when 
looking at the date it says '1988' for the year, which corresponds to a 
roll-over of the counter after 1024. Doing the math, and adding the 1024 
to the GPS-date gives the proper answer.

My question: I'm looking for more information and software utillities. 
Is there anyone with docs (PDF?) and/or the flash-utillities of this 
receiver? The firmware version is 4.06. (The 5.12 version from Trimble 
seems to work, but not for the full 100% for these receivers).

Thank you, best regards, 73 Jeroen PE1RGE
