Quite a few time nuts have Rb GPSDRb's running using Shera's controller. I did mine in 1999 with the help of Brooks and Corby and my first FRK died on Shrea's controller after 24 years of service. Bad lamp. Have to measure C field sensitivity just like on an OCXO and increasing sample time from 30 seconds to 120 helps. Works great. My first OCXO was last year using a MV89 when we worked on the release of Brooks last controller. Bert Kehren In a message dated 3/21/2014 2:31:45 P.M.

I'm working on doing exactly this right now. There is a "ton" of information on how to build a GPSDO where the oscillator is an OCXO. But it is almost exactly the same thing to build a "GPSDRb" The only change is that rather then sending a command to control a DAC that in turn controls the OCXO's EFC pin you send data to control the Rb. Also of course use some different constants. There seem to be two different class of Rb. One takes an EFC just like the OCXO so the controller looks just like a GPSDO and the other class of Rb accepts serial commends to adjust the frequency. These have an internal DAC. But either way the logic is the same.
