Yes. Uputronics takes one of the GPSDO boxes and uses it to driver
the RasPi clock. A $200 OSC for a $35 board. :-)

I disagree there. On my Pi's the instability is in the interrupt
latencies. So the clock is not bad, but the jumpy PPS timestamps
convince ntpd to keep slewing the clock back and forth. I mitigate
that a bit by setting min_poll larger, and ntpd averages the one second
timestamps within the poll period. Except for the timestamps it
drops...

Yeah... But I like the new prices. $35 for quad core CPU over @ GHz!
