I've just bought a second Star 4+ GPSDO (I got it relatively cheap on an auction) so I can do comparative measurements.
I've set it going doing its self survey having set tau to 5000 seconds as on my existing one.
It is connected to the same GPS antenna via an HP 4 way splitter so I'd expect it to report exactly the same satellites as the original one.
It does do so, there is a slight difference in reported SNR but nothing unexpected.
But what is weird is it is able to see an extra satellite, number 21, which the original one is not reporting! See attached screen shot.
Given that the GPSDOs are the same model it is a little strange unless one of them has got some parameter set differently - I've not done so deliberately. The satellite has a high SNR so it is not a borderline case.
The one exception is the antenna delay - I got around to setting this for 16m of cable on both but for the one in hold mode it ignored it so the new one has -80nsecs and the original is still on 0nsecs but I thought this only affected time alignment not the disciplining input.
Also, I couldn't find the command in Lady Heather to hide the location (of my secret volcanic lair) so had to redact manually - I know there is such a command but I couldn't locate it.
