We use one at Stanford to provide a backup pseudo strat 1 service, in case
we lose our BARRNet connection.  It works pretty well if you put a Real 
Antenna on it.  The biggest pain is resetting the year dip switch when
you have a hangover...;-)

While We're On the Subject...  Does anyone have an xntpd driver for this 
beast?  We're running a patched copy of ntpd 3.4, which refuses to work
under Dogtrix due to their hack on the tty buffer flushing code.  In fact
the only machine we could find that it would run on was an IBM PC-RT....
