[time-nuts] ES100 BPSK WWVB jitter data

2018-12-25 Thread Tim Shoppa
I let the Universal Solder ES100 board run overnight in my basement in Maryland for 10 hours, its little loopsticks at least 5 feet from switching power supplies, and it often could get successful WWVB BPSK decodes. This is a feat in itself. No non-BPSK WWVB clock antenna has ever produced a usefu

Thanks, Tim, for the info on an interesting device. BTW, has anybody yet heard definite news on whether or not WWVB will still be operating much longer? Dana On Tue, Dec 25, 2018 at 8:26 AM Tim Shoppa wrote: > I let the Universal Solder ES100 board run overnight in my basement in > Maryland f

I also received mine. I have it hooked up to a Beaglebone Black (BBB) running Python for control of the ES100. Since the BBB is a 3.3V device, no issues with the Voltage of the interfaces. On the second floor of a house in Austin, TX, so far, it provides the time every time I ask it (about a 2 minu

Tim -- Thanks much for that initial ES100 report. Within a day, universal-solder.ca sold out their initial inventory of these dev boards so I'm expecting a flood of technical reports here on the list. Graham -- Thanks for your comments on I2C. That will surely help others who get frustrated usi
