Heol Designs offers a series Trimble GPS replacement boards

In addition, they offered a Special NO24 version (custom firmware) to address shortcomings of the Tymserve TS-2100.
I use the Heol Design NO24 upgrade on my TS-2100.

Fellow Time Travelers,
My TrueTime NTS-100 just got hit with the GPS date rollover bug
(started showing dates in the year 1997).
Does anyone have, or know of, an appropriate firmware update for this
beastie? Or is it time to recycle the thing?
Would replacing the GPS receiver board cure it? The unit seems to be
using an older Trimble unit (I'm guessing one of their 8-channel boards).

Thanks much.
