Re: [time-nuts] DCF77 Generation

2012-09-10 Thread Tom Harris
Thanks for this, the idea of using a serial port to generate the DCF77 data
in WWVB3.C is most ingenious. We may actually have to do this as the
braindead modem that were were using for initial development has a timing
resolution of 18.461ms, so impossible to do times that are multiples of
100ms :) Oh well, if engineering was easy, everyone would do it.

 There's some DCF77 support as I recall. Contact me offline if you have
 questions.

  Greetings,
 
  I have just written some code for generating DCF77 pulses given a 100ms
  clock interrupt and an accurate timestamp  from a RTC, for a mate who has
  to get some imported clock movements synced up (we are in Australia which
  has no radio time service). I did a quick search and found very little
 out
  there from people generating their own DCF77 data, so I thought I'd ask
 if
  anyone else has ever done anything similar (and why as well). We are not
  transmitting, only faking the output from a DCF77 receiver.

Elrad (an old, discontinued german electronics magazine) had once an
article on a DCF77 signal generator IIRC complete with 77.5kHz radio
signal, somewhen in the second half of the 90s. If anyone is interested,
i can try to track the article down in my archives.

Just saw your post
Though I have visited your site many times over the years never ran into
these.
Looking forward to downloading and trying the exes out tonight.
I am working on the wwvb d-psk-r and this will be handy for the am in the
modulator instead of fixed streams.
Thanks
