    Introduction
    Here's a used GPS atomic clock time receiver. It has the Option 27 additional IRIG outputs installed. It comes with a basic test antenna so it will acquire time for you right out of the box. The included antenna is intended to get you started and to allow you to check out the unit the day it arrives. A weatherproof external antenna with a full view of the sky is recommended for a permanent installation and for achieving the highest level of time accuracy (including achieving 'LOCK') as the unit will need to track 4+ satellites to achieve this - and I usually have some listed that would be ideal.
    The firmware has been upgraded to very recent factory-supplied code (2016 version) so you're running a current spec and won't have to worry about compliance with DST changes. This unit does not have a rechargeable back up battery installed. The power is supplied via a rear panel barrier strip which I would regard as a dangerous approach. The buyer is highly encouraged to cover this securely or install a power ingress device that does not have exposed contacts.
