It might be eye candy, but is very useful eye candy when coupled with the satellite SNR values.  A GPSDO does not NEED any communications to the GPS or the outside world,  but EVERY commercial one does support it.  

The GPSDO firmware asks for the sat info from the GPS (so it can show it in the SYST:STAT status page) and, if it doesn't get it, it assumes the GPS is defective, crawls into a corner, and sobs.

> Isn’t info about what satellites are where, just eye candy and irrelevant to a real GPSDO?
