Discussing the lifetime of NTP server hardware is all well and good but given the thrust of this list, i.e. individual time-nuttery, I don't see it as being too germane. Few of us have the same problems that Jim Lux has at JPL.
I want to have a good time and frequency source in my little network that I run. I can put an extra BBB or two aside to run NTP. Eventually I will want to replace it but I bet that there will be an adequate SBC and free OS to do that when need arises. So, I am still looking for a straight-forward, "here is a really good way to use a BBB coupled to a GPS 1pps to do NTP," treatise. Better still if someone is using their LTE-lite to do it. It seems like a nice little package for the amateur time-nut for everyday time and frequency keeping. Oh, and if it has nixie tubes to display current time, umso besser! After all, I still need to set my old-style watch and a few mechanical chronographs I have kicking around. -- Brian Lloyd Lloyd Aviation 706 Flightline Drive Spring Branch, TX 78070 br...@lloyd.aero +1.210.802-8FLY (1.210.802-8359) _______________________________________________ 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.
