They also attract knowledgable buyers... that seem to be regulars.
Everything went for way over what I was prepared to bid last time I went,
but that was a live auction.

It will be interesting to see the online bids as the auction draws to a
close.

Maybe I'll go take a look at the preview - it's only a few miles out of my
way.

Re: [time-nuts] TAPR kit- Success!!!!!

2017-07-06 Thread Art Sepin
Group,

I reviewed the TAPR GPS Kit documentation and realized that nowhere did it say: 
"If the TxD  indicator does not flash, it means the M12+ is waiting for a 
command from the host computer." That sentence is now included in the revised 
GPS Kit document and will be available tomorrow on this page: 
http://www.synergy-gps.com/index.php?option=com_content=view=54=73

Here is the revised paragraph in full:
TxD— The TxD LED will momentarily flash RED whenever the GPS Kit is sending GPS 
data to the host. If the TxD
 indicator does not flash, it means the M12+ is waiting for a command from the 
host computer. After the internal RAM backup battery is fully charged (24 hours 
of continuous operation) the SynPaQ/E will remember the receiver’s setup 
through a power cycle – e.g. user selected output messages, message output 
rate, antenna mask angle, etc.

The RxD indicator only flashes when setup commands are received from the host 
device. Once the GPS Kit is set up, the RxD doesn't flash unless a new command 
is received.

Synergy's SynTAC test and diagnostic software automatically initializes the 
M12+ included in the GPS Kit. After this setup is complete, the TxD indicator 
will flash at once per second:
http://www.synergy-gps.com/index.php?option=com_content=view=185=196
 It's not necessary to purchase SynTAC to accomplish automatic initialization 
of the GPS Kit since it is fully functional through a 30 day sample period.

Apologies for any inconvenience!
Art Sepin

Subject: [time-nuts] TAPR kit- Success!

Just sent this to in response to an off list response from a member but I 
wanted to share with the group. 
I'm now seeing at least 8 satellites with just the tiny patch antenna sitting 
out on a chair on my deck (not connected to my main time system antenna out in 
the back yard) Success! Thanks to all for the help.

Re: [time-nuts] HP 5065A High-Res Schematics?

2017-07-06 Thread Ed Palmer

Hi Tom,

Yes, I hope to get a hard copy eventually, but even with a hard copy, a 
good OCRed soft copy is useful.  After all, you can't do a search on a 
hard copy.  And if you're away from home, even if just across town, 
lugging manuals along is rarely appropriate.


I'm familiar with Dave's manuals.  I've bought one or two over the 
years.  However, the copy he lists in his auctions and on his web site 
is an older version.  There's no mention whether change sheets are 
included.  Also, on his older products at least, although he does do an 
OCR, he doesn't edit the results to correct recognition errors.  
Depending on which OCR program you've got, that can be an almost 
impossible task.

Hi Ed,

You can still find original hp manuals if you want the full 3D experience of 
physical high-res fold-out paper manuals.

Many of my favorite atomic standards manuals went to Dave at artekmanuals.com 
and he has done a superb job with scanning. Check with him about his PDF's. He 
may still offer them on eBay, or perhaps there's a special deal for time-nuts.
