Re: [time-nuts] Introduction and info about a Lucent RFTG

Hi Denver When you refer to one "side" or the other, do you have the complete RFTG unit with the two modules? I only have the internals of the Rubidium module so would hardly claim to be an expert on these, or on much else for that matter:-), but as I understand it from the documentation th

Hello, does anyone know more about the GPS Simulators from Welnavigate ? The company seems to longer exist for several years and not much information can be found, besides some manuals on archive.org. I am especially interested in the software which controls the hardware. From what I know so far

As stated AM stations in US must maintain 20 Hz accuracy. Most are well within that tolerance. I have measured many AM station's frequency as a function of my employment before retirement. Now comes HD radio. While the merits of HD AM radio are very much open to debate, one benefit is th

In the seventies I did for some friends that had FCC First class licenses a counter that on the input had three J/K F/F's to subtract the IF from the LO. They modified receivers including running the IF in to saturation and they certified stations without going there.. I think measurements ha

First, an apology.  When I changed the topic on my original post, I thought that would be OK.  Apparently that's still a thread-jacking.  Sorry. I'm still interested in this Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer thing, though.  On page 335 of the pdf linked below by Dave, there's an experiment with an

Hi Bob: This is very similar to a "proton precession magnetometer" that measures the total magnetic field, not in vector components. There's a lot of amateur designs for these that you could use as the bases for a MRS. There is an article in the same publication for a tube type frequency stand
