Didier,
This looks very useful. Is there a specific DB9 to USB-C cable that you
would recommend, or would you use a USB-A (female) to USB-C adapter with a
standatrd USB-A to DB9 cable?

Thank you Didier.
Some of us are serious time nuts that means our measurements exceed 24 hours.
When GPS is involved 48 hours is a minimum. Unless you have a Cs fountain

As many others have mentioned, Meinberg has an excellent Windows port

Hello Mark. Thanks for that explanation. I GUESS my gobble-fu was working

Hello Time-Nuts,
Well, my trusty Austron 2110 has developed an intermittent that I am
pretty sure is on the uP PCB (throws Illegal SWI3 Occurrence error).
Anyone have a unit that is parts that they would like to get rid of?
If so, please contact me off list.
Yes, there is a uP PCB on eBay, but what

CATV plant in inherently asymmetric in delays. Referring to the DOCSIS (data
over cable service interface specification) specs for North America:
Downstream to the customer:
6 MHz channels with 64- or 256-level QAM modulation. If 256-QAM is used, the
raw usable bandwidth is about 38 Mbit/s
The interface from the FA2 is USB, so there is no need (and no way) to go
through a DB9. I recommend using an adapter to go from your tablet
(typically micro-USB or USB-C) to a USB-A socket, then use a standard USB-A
male to USB-B male cable going to the FA2.
One issue: once the tablet is connecte
Hi
Once you dig into all the sources of delay, the asymmetry is much more likely
to be
dimensioned in miliseconds than in microseconds. There are a lot of things that
contribute
to the total.

You can't test a server for smearieness. It wouldn't surprise me if some
of them turn out to be getting time from google servers or something
similar.
