Interesting, because the LC_XO module ALSO has a "lock_ok" pin, which is
what I *thought* the drivers were looking at.
See

It could be the case that particular pin is ALSO not a reliable
indication of TIME lock, and they moved to using GPGGA instead.
Maybe...

Apparently the Jackson Labs GPSDO also offers an option to modify the
meaning of that field in the GPGGA sentence, making it the same as the
field in the SERVO sentence. But even if that were the case, the code
still only looks for an != "0" result which is not accurate enough.

I do know that on at least SOME of the GPSDOs used by various Ettus/NI devices, the GPSDO   runs custom firmware, for example to allow the on-board 10MHz output to be output before   the device has lock.  The default on many of them is that it gates PPS and 10MHz outputs
  conditional on lock.  I wonder if the GPGGA field is also "custom"?

Are you using the Ettus-supplied GPSDO, or direct from Jackson Labs?
