Another option is to replace floppy drives in equipment with a drive emulator - basically looks like a floppy drive to the spectrum analyzer (or scope, etc.) and reads/write data directly to a USB memory stick on the front. Check ebay #180616904079 for instance, $35.
Which equipment will work with which emulator is a question of trial and error (or seeing reports of someone that converted specific models before). -----Original Message----- From: time-nuts-boun...@febo.com [mailto:time-nuts-boun...@febo.com] On Behalf Of Hal Murray Sent: Thursday, September 29, 2011 12:17 AM To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement Subject: Re: [time-nuts] Any thoughts on best rubidium? > but I don't have a floppy drive in my PC :-( You can get floppy drives that connect via USB. Frys has one for $22. If you have a fancy box that you like and it has a floppy, it might be worth getting (or hanging on to) a reasonable PC that still has a floppy drive just so you can still carry files back and forth. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
