There is also a nice pdf out there by Peter Garde that tells how to add a GPS receiver to the non-GPD RFTG. It involves moving around 6 0-ohm (?) resistors and plugging in an old Motorola (UT+) receiver. I found the pdf on EEVBLOG.
I remember seeing that pdf and thinking that the Motorola UT+ mounts look a lot like the
Motorola 12+ and was wondering if would just fit. I'll go back and look. Thanks.

Mark, I went back and looked at the PDF from Peter and the Oncore GPS looks quite a bit
like the M12+ I have. Peter mentions something about firmware in the Oncore. Anyone
know if there would be an issue between using the Oncore and the 12+?
If this works then I can just drop in my 12+, remove a few jumpers and Bob's my uncle.
I sent Peter a note. Is he active on this forum?
Thoughts?

It turns out I don't have an M12+ in the TAPR GPS. I always knew I had an older model. I
checked the numbers and pictures and it it just what I need, an Oncore UT+. So the first
thing I need to do is get my REF1 standalone and then add this GPS to the REF0 and
problem solved. I also have to get the 10Mhz out of the REF1 but that looks easy.
Thanks for all the pointers.

It is best to just double the 5 MHz that comes straight from the MTI-260
oven.
