I was going to ask a question here today and was surprised to find that it was answered (I think) before I asked it! You guys are good! I was going to ask if I connect my Z3801's 10 MHz output to my F5K will the Flex inherit the same accuracy as the standard? I think the Stu might have

I've used the F5K with an external reference and can verify that it works; you can see WWV's carrier jump when you plug and unplug the external reference. However, perhaps Tim could verify something for the time-nuts amongst us: is the clock for the ADC locked to the same reference as the

I have a question concerning the frequency accuracy of my 5KA. When I tune to WWV 10.0 MHz. the digital readout on the lower right hand bottom of the Panadapter reads -19.1 Hz 9.999 981 MHz. My sampling rate is 192.KHz. Does this mean I am off frequency by almost 20 Hz? If so, how does

Dan, Checkout page 69 of the Users Guide. Describes how to use the Setup = General + Calibrate menu to auto calibrate to WWV. Should get you within a quarter of a cycle. Hope this helps 73, Dudley WA5QPZ AB2CD wrote: I have a question concerning the frequency accuracy of my 5KA.
