Time transfer using the phase of the GPS carrier

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.
