[time-nuts] GPSDOs with 10.23 MHz output?

2020-02-26 Thread AC0XU (Jim)
Time-nuts-

I recall seeing a few models of GPSDOs that have 10.23 MHz output. Now when I 
want one I am not having any luck. Any recommendations?

Thanks-
Jim

I guess they are part of the 5 -> 10 MHz doubler

properly, which should be available from Axtal's website, if I'm not

Yes, I mentionend the Quarzkochbuch above. There was a nonstandard

solution proposed by Detleff Burchard in UKW-Berichte / VHF Communications

4/92 but I can't find my copy. I had built the head some 20 years ago

and it seemed to work. The drawback was that one had to compensate C0,

at least at 100 MHz.

Nice pictures! Thanks!

Do you know what the two coils/transformers that were glued to the
outside of the inner oven were for?

Judging from the specs, very unlikely. The short-term and long-term
stability are consistent with what I expect of an 3rd overtone 5MHz
SC cut crystal. The lower Q of a fundamental mode crystal would result
in a higher close in phase noise and the thinner plate would lead to
a higher aging rate at tau of one day. I can see two reasons for you
to not see the fundamental mode: Either your measurement setup was not
done properly to measure quartz crystals (see Bob's comment on impedance)
or they manufactured the crystal for low fundamental mode.

Bernd Neubig has written a few documents on how to measure crystals
properly, which should be available from Axtal's website, if I'm not
mistaken.

Hi Tom,

   I ran across one the other day, actually, looking for something else.

   Surplus Sales of Nebraska has an HC-6 crystal as p/n (CRY) 005.115000

   

Probably not exactly what You were looking for, but a start!

IIRC someone has offered a 10.23 MHz variant of the 10811 some years ago 
on the list.

I have seen 10.23 parts somewhere but can't remember the application.

If you can't track one down there's still a couple of reasonably priced
options for custom crystals, you can have them ground by a czech company,

For a DIY project I'd like a 5.115 MHz OCXO. That weird-looking number 
is half the basic 10.23 MHz GPS chip rate.


I realize it's trivial to create 5.115 MHz with a DDS chip, a function 
generator, synthesizer, or even an aggressive phase microstepper. But in 
this case, if possible, I'd prefer a simple single part; a plain old XO 
or OCXO solution. Do any of you know where to get a 5.115 MHz crystal or 
oscillator?


I'm pretty sure that I've seen one-off surplus 10.23 MHz or 5.115 MHz 
OCXO on eBay but I never thought to bid on them because the frequency 
was strange. If you saw one, and "bought before you thought", let me know.
