I'm pretty sure cell towers all use gps for time synchronization, which is necessary for the network to work. I always trust my cell phone time.

- tonyarkles 14y agoI'm pretty certain that CDMA towers, at least, had exceptionally accurate clocks for something related to the technology (synchronizing the chip code maybe? it's a guess). Not sure if this applies to GSM as well, but CDMA used to be an acceptable clock source for a Statum 0 clock source.
