In case anyone else is shopping online for a used Motorola Oncore M12+T
timing GPS, it's probably useful to know what I just learned:
Some online sellers offering "M12+T 100 pps GPS" may instead send you a M12
Navigation (non-timing) GPS. The differences:
Motorola Oncore M12 Navigation GPS:
---
* Supports Motorola Binary and NMEA output
* does not have 100 Hz output
* does not have TRAIM (Timing Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitor)
* does not have sawtooth correction output
* 1 PPS <500 ns timing
crystal nearest MMCX antenna connector is two-lead can style with bent
leads for surface mounting
example p/n label: P183T12N12 (final "N" = "Navigation"?)

Motorola Oncore M12+T Timing GPS:
---
* Supports Motorola Binary output only
* 1 Hz or 100 Hz output selectable
* TRAIM (Timing Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitor)
* sawtooth correction ("clock granularity") message available
* 1 pps <2nS 1 Sigma, <6nS 6 Sigma (using sawtooth correction message)
* 1 pps <10nS 1 Sigma, <20nS 6 Sigma (without correction)
smaller leadless surface-mount crystals
example p/n label: P283T12T17 (final "T" = "Timing"?)
