Maybe it's the 2nd LO for a dual conversion receiver with IF's at 10.7 MHz and 455 kHz. 10.238 + 0.455 = 10.693 Rick Karlquist N6RK Jim Lux wrote: > At 10:37 AM 5/30/2008, you wrote: >>I have two PIEZO 10.230 MHz crystal oscillators in the same style package >> as >>the 10811. But the oscillat

Bill, I have not seen 10.23MHz external freq input on commercial receivers. But I have two ancient (ca 1991) Magnavox GPS Engines. (As seen on page 23 in pdf below.) http://www.rms-ion.org/Presentations/Dual-Use%20GPS.pdf These are running on 10.23MHz XOs. One (of too many) future projects i

Brooke, That would imply that this 10.23 MHz ocxo could be used in place of a GPS receiver's oscillator and some additional circuitry to form a LOOP. Then divide by 1023 for a reference frequency to another loop with a sine-wave oscillator as the house standard. I have seen the above suggested

Hi Rick: 10.23 MHz shows up in the ICD-200 spec on how the GPS signal is generated. I've got a GPS sig gen see: http://www.prc68.com/I/5001A.html http://www.prc68.com/I/5001Bot.html and it has an HP 10.23 MHz oscillator. Have Fun, Brooke Clarke http://www.prc68.com/P/Prod.html Products I make

Early GPS receivers used a 10.23 MHz time base. Probably related to 2^10-1. Some GPS manufacturers approached HP about making a 10811 on 10.23 MHz. There is a circuit modification for 10.23 MHz and some crystals were made (I have some somewhere). However, I don't believe any 10.23 MHz 10811's wer
