Re: [time-nuts] Purchasing a Trimble GPS timing solution

I note the Chinese supplier offers two kits, one more expensive than the other. The difference is the GPS aerial. Anybody any experience of the difference between them? David Mark Sims hol...@hotmail.com 12/07/2009 23:21 I have purchased several items from that seller without problem. He

I am not very much interested in how it is achieved, but wonder if a 10MHz oscillator locked to GPS is now available as plugplay rather than needing a lot of time/effort/building. I note the Thunderbolt units available from the Far East on ebay for~£80gbp. Are these really PP - that is, just

Many thanks Mark. I was thinking of setting up in a fixed position and leaving on permanently. But then if there's a power cut? Do you know if the China supplier is OK? Or any source in the UK of Thunderbolt? David Mark Sims hol...@hotmail.com 30/06/09 17:48 There is one thing that make

I want to generate sine wave signals at 42MHz and 116MHz for use with VHF transverters. A simple tcxo isn't stable enough. I'm looking for simple/cheap solutions and I'd appreciate any comments. 1) I have a stable reference at 10MHz available 2) Reflock is overkill 3) I guess a G8ACE type ocxo

I've recently acquired a RACL 9480 Time and Frequency Mainframe. It has a single card with 5 x 1MHz outputs. Does anybody know of a source of cards with 5 x 10MHz outputs? Thanks David, G4YTL ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To

Thanks. I'd seen those. Some are 5MHz. The NEC/Toycom produces a CMOS level output. And some of the others are indeed rather pricey. But I'll keep looking! David Eamon Skelton [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/03/2008 08:50 David Hilton-Jones wrote: Does anybody (preferably in the UK for PP) have
