Hi

But, by their nature, not useful for timing or precision navigation. They are simply
a solution to the “feed you coupons at the mall” issue. Since they run as an independent 
system (they have their own ID’s) the direct “pollution” issue on a GPSDO is eliminated. 
You still have the previously mentioned receiver dynamic range questions.
