But this is time nuts.

I think it's interesting to consider where we might get a second source of 
time or frequency frequency.  How good is it?  What does it cost?  How much 
can amateurs do?

Maybe something will work where GPS doesn't.

I was going to try GPS in a big machine room but we didn't get that far.  It 
didn't work in the adjoining office complex.  I assume there was too much 
metal in the building. but EMI from all the local PCs probably didn't help 
much.
