I'm newly in charge of a Metaswitch environment as well.

From: Lewis Bergman Sent: Friday, February 23, 2018 6:44 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT Raspberry PI Every Rubidium GPS timing piece of gear I have ever seen outputs 10MHz. Every device that I have ever seen that takes a timing signal requires 10MHz. I probably have lead a sheltered life but I haven't seen anything else.
