[time-nuts] common mode loran comparisons

2007-06-02 Thread tom jones
I'm getting great results monitoring daily phase changes of the fallon loran master station. I don't have any computer logging from my austron 2100's but manual readings taken several times a day show 10 to 30 nanosec of phase change throughout the day and about 0 to 10 ns day to day and

A friend of mine just picked up a Z3801 GPS receiver without the necessary antenna. I know this has been discussed recently but am wondering what the recommended (cheap but usable ) antenna would be. I want to give him a recommendation or two. The antenna has to be a 5 Volt version to match
