Hi I still think the original idea about a FOA filing is a *very* good one. Don't go after the receiver. Go after all the details about the transmit format.

The design has been created by Xtendwave under an SBIR grant. Their design is proprietary. Sorry, John ================ To me this reads... If you want to use the publicly financed WWVB service, you MUST buy the Xtendwave hardware. This is an outrage, IMO. YMMV -John ============ _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
