Re: [time-nuts] GPS rollover on KS-24361

Is it the KS24361 code itself or the GPS receiver in it sending nonsense ?

I'm looking at the output from the KS24361, the status page and the T2 format
time message.

I think these work like the Z801A where you can turn off the unit,
disconnect the antenna,  power up,  set the date (and time?), re-connect the
antenna,  and it should should recover and remember the date correction.

I was expecting that it would do the right thing if it knew the correct time
when the rollover happened.

Does anybody know when the Z3801A rolled over?  Did it keep going or jump
back?
