FWIW, the Garmin 12XL is a *very* nice unit.  I've used it for almost 2
years now (work related), and have nothing but high-praise to speak
about it.

The Garmin 12 is also nice, but does not allow for an external antenna.

(We use them for clock synchronization at a macro-level of +-1sec, which
is adequate for our applications.)
