I'm looking for a bunch of stuff. Sent to Lucas in a private email.
No need to clutter this list with "what-if's".

Don't read things into my words that I did not say. I said Lucas said
in his paper that he used EXTINT0. I did not say other things could not
work.

Typo, as already pointed out by someon else: I meant UBX-TIM-TM2.

I' like to see an a/b of the M8F against the M8T before making any
judgements.
For a lone time people kept telling me the M8T was better at PPS than
the M8N, but my tests show otherwise. Talk is cheap. Data rules.
Which is not to say there are not some cool things in the M8T, just that
the PPS is not better.
