Abstract :
A Josephson Array Voltage Standard (JAVS) has been established at the National Metrology Laboratory (NML) in South Africa, with the assistance of NIST and the PTB. We are currently working on what we believe to be the first use of the global positioning system (GPS) to provide direct frequency traceability for a JAVS.<>
