Rick,
I took a listen the other night and did not hear the beat. Tonight
my wife and I went out for a little sustenance, just to maintain
life, of course. On the way to the restaurant I tuned my car radio
to 940. At first I didn't hear any beat, but then it faded in and
was quite loud. On
Les,
I do sort of remember Cambridge Thermionics. I came across their
name back in the late 60's or early 70's when I first got in the
frequency measurement "business". I think I also remember seeing
their name as a parts supplier in some WW-2 military radio manuals.

Something I see on Ed's "SAS" antenna plot that my be of interest to others.
Antenna vew looks pretty good for the most part (besides the Noth blockage)
but there are several small 5 to 10 db nulls in the middle of otherwise
strong signals, especially facing south.

Even if you could, the referenced would be no better than the GPS.

That is a great LH plot, AND Tbolt setup.
Noise is about the same as I'm seeing.
Can also use this setup to see if the Tbolt location is set correctly by
doing a longer plot that includes many satellites changes and see what the
peak noise spikes are.
One little minor thing you missed tha
I don't see any practical way to do that. There are so many
variables and it's such a dynamic problem.

Yup the guts would be handy indeed. So would the box.

Oh my, you're absolutely right... I've totally missed out those few lines!
Now I understand. I apologize and go immediately to search for a Tbolt. A
similar design is the ConnorWinfield/NavSync FTS125 but instead of
disciplining an OCXO they use a 20MHz fixed OCXO (without EFC) to drive the

I picked up a HP 58516A GPS L1 Distribution amplifier at NEARfest really for the

Anyone have any interest before I gut it?

It could be 10 watts or as I suggest 100 or more. Depends on the range you
want to cover and what you can afford. Thats why the AM broadcast stations
are attractive, the infrastructure and power consumptions being taken care

Thanks for the Tbolt vs. H-maser data log,
That's great data showing how good GPS can be out to 200,000 sec with SA
off.
Your data showing a little under 5e-14 at 1 day, makes a very good reference
point to remember.
Any guess when your plot would flattens out or turn around?
It is also

Would it be possible to use some form of SDR and massive

The three I mentioned: KFWB 980, KNX 1070, and KDIS 1110 are usually
well within 1 mHz when operating on their GPS referenced
exciters. Do not be fooled by thinking that just because a station
is operating in the IBOC digital mode that they will be GPS
referenced. As I mentioned before, not a
