At the end of last month I bought a Trak 8821B-7 via the usual place, others here may well have bid on it too, it didn't have the display but I'd already got an IRIG-B display unit so no problem there, or so I thought. It turned out to be a base station special, with an original Trak fitted 16.384MHz oscillator and with the IRIG-B and divided frequency outputs not fitted. Bit of an expensive mistake that one:-( Sorry to hear the 5000 module didn't survive too long. regards Nigel GM8PZR ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
Re: [time-nuts] I'm back! And I need a receiver...
Bruce, Four years ago, I planned to build a three-rack time standard system similar to the one at Fort Collins. It was a bridge too far and now I have a surplus of Datum time code generators in the 9100, 9200, and 9300 series. Many of them do IRIG-B and have an external input for 1 MHz. The three best units would have been the system clock displays. They do not have disciplined oscillators, but there are empty card sockets for anything you care to add, like a divide by ten for 10 MHz. Units are less than 4U, some are only 1U high. Units are available for a third of a C note, or four for the whole note.

Do you need the one with the two boards piggypacked (main board and smaller RF voard) or the single board version.I tried to email you directly, but your overly paranoid email blocker gets in the way... _ Color coding for safety: Windows Live Hotmail alerts you to suspicious email. http://windowslive.com/Explore/Hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_acq_safety_112008 ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
Re: [time-nuts] I'm back! And I need a receiver...
Hi, Bill, Thanks for the offer, but I also have a goodly number of the Datum 9300's and similar units. What I really need at the moment is at least a partial turnkey solution. Ideally, I want to fix the Odetics clock as it has been very reliable outside of the GPS receiver. I know if I look long enough, I'll find something. *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 20-Nov-08 at 13:11 Bill Hawkins wrote: Bruce, Four years ago, I planned to build a three-rack time standard system similar to the one at Fort Collins.
