Quote  “As for cost, the Ultimate GPS is less money than the IMP”


Ultimate GPS = 40
Antenna        = 13
Antenna adapter = 4
==================
               $57 USD

Most GPS time applications will require, in most cases, the sensitive active, external, remote
antenna and antenna adapter for inside use. Buyer beware. 


Electric IMP = 30
IMP breakout = 13
Level shifter = 4
======================
               $47 USD

Note: The Electric IMP “cloud” server could disappear at any time.

One requested feature for the Electric IMP was for their servers to
generate automatic DST local time. x = time(PST or PDT) for west coast users.
So all you would need to do is add or remove the WIFI SD card to the
Alpha Clock Five with absolutely no firmware changes.
