[Richard B. Langley]

Quoting Tom Van Baak <tvb at leapsecond.com>:


> TAI, GPS, or UTC out of a GPS receiver. One downside

> is that you have to wait up to 12.5 seconds for the leap

> second information to show up, which can cause timing

> issues with cold-start receivers.


The current GPS navigation message lasts 12.5 MINUTES.
