Jason Rabel said the following on 12/31/2006 09:45 PM: The two units go in (what was told to me) an open frame chassis, it has SMA and I believe DB-15 connections along the top. The connections on the chassis split the signals even more, presumably for routing to the rest of the cell.

Hello, Let me introduce myself. I've always been interested in time and more and more accurate clocks. I have built myself a GPS disciplined HP10811 clock (Murray Greenman's design) and it all works very nicely. I have acquired the old Australian Speaking Clock hardware and am driving it from

How do we know which is the more accurate timekeeper? Keep in mind we have no other units to compare with. Only these two. If there is only one clock -- that is the exact time and you are sure of it (and strictly speaking, in this case, the word accuracy doesn't apply). If you have two
