This would avoid everyone having to buy new watches. Any commercial entity who really needs accurate time switched over to GPS a decade ago. Joke's on them. GPS time is implemented by the atomic clocks in the GPS ground control stations and the GPS satellites themselves. Since it is not updated with leap seconds, GPS is currently ahead of UTC by 14 seconds. Easily compensated for in the software. http://www.ese-web.com/ |
