  • Abstract
    We report on tests of time transfer using the phase of the GPS carrier. The first set of experiments used two clocks connected to independent GPS receivers with closely-spaced antennas. The second set of experiments compared a clock at NIST in Boulder with one at the US Naval Observatory in Washington, DC.
