Hi Add in variables like supply voltage, tuning approach, signal levels, and gain ….
There are a lot of things you need to match up to get a downconverter going with an old style GPS. Once you do, you then likely have a unit that has GPS epoch roll over issues. It may have other firmware quirks as well. None of that says “don’t do it”. It simply is a caution that this is a labor of love rather than one getting a useful piece of gear up and going. You may ultimately have something useful, the odds are it will have bugs … Bob > On Aug 6, 2016, at 9:44 AM, paul swed <paulsw...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Completely agree with the comment on working with other receivers. > The down converters had to match the IF and there were at that time at > least 2 IF frequencies 75 and 34 MHz as I recall. > But that said no idea what they may cost and is it worth the gamble. > Or reach out to meinberg and ask. > Regards > Paul > WB8TSL > > On Sat, Aug 6, 2016 at 4:19 AM, Martin Burnicki < > martin.burni...@burnicki.net> wrote: > >> Alexander Pummer wrote: >>> Meinberg https://www.meinbergglobal.com/ makes complete down and up >>> converter for GPS remote antennas >> >> That's true, but they have been designed for the frontend assembled in >> Meinberg GPS receivers.
