Several years ago I bought a very nice 24U EMC screend cabinet at auction. It had an Odetics SatSync GPSDo with a rubidium reference, dual redundant power supplies, a logic box and an AN/ARC164 UHF transceiverin a 19" rack chassis. It was a shipborne havequick timing reference. I still have the SatSync and got 5 times what I paid for the whole thing for the ARC164 :-)

Wow, that was more than 20 years ago - I guess I'm getting old... _______________________________________________ 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.
