In this group, recently there has been discussion of the annoyance of spread-spectrum clocked motherboards.
Now, while *how much* spread spectrum hurts timekeeping is debatable, it obviously won't help. Since most of us just don't care about the EMI we might emit, clearly we want it OFF. And yet, I recall in earlier months some bemoaning of the fact that WWVB-like radio time services are often unusable due to EMI from factories. Such people might want the authorities to crack down. So, out of curiousity: Suppose all personal computers used the same FSB clock speed, which happens to be the same frequency as a highly useful public radio clock signal. Would the experts here then want the government to mandate spread spectrum be ON, and if so, what sort of modulation to use? ---- Michael Deutschmann <mich...@talamasca.ocis.net> _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
