[time-nuts] Help needed: Jupiter-T TU60-D120

I got a Jupiter-T TU60 off eBay and my intentions are (was) to get a diciplined oscillator running. Somehow I expected it to be pretty similar (command wise) to a TU-30 wich is up and running here, but must have missed the information that it starts in Motorola Bin?? My TU60 will just say ff

I'm looking for a way to take GPS time and generate a signal that can be recorded on the audio track of a video recording to time stamp it. This is so it can be aligned with other data that's collected with GPS based time. It needs to be portable/small (i.e. Something you could attach to a

As a model for what they're trying to do, say you were going to measure the acceleration due to gravity by videotaping a falling object against a scale in the background. Except that the motion is more complex.. Maybe imagine putting an accelerometer in the payload of a trebuchet... And you

Hi James: You might want to get a KIWI-OSD, Video overlay of GPS precision time stamp. It adds HH:MM:SS FF at the bottom of the image and so can be seen in every field. They have also developed a way to calibrate the camera shutter in relation to the frame time by using a

Hi Poul: That should allow better determination of the propagation path length when combined with the L1 C/A signal. Next year when L1CS, L1CM, L1CL, L2CS, L2CM and L2CL signals are added it's going to really get interesting. Does Javad make a timing receiver? Have Fun, Brooke Clarke

Brooke The KIWI-OSD is no longer available. However some circuit detail is available at: http://spiff.rit.edu/richmond/ritobs/kiwi/kiwi.html It really should be reworked to use a more reliable time source such as a GPS timing receiver. Bruce Brooke Clarke wrote: Hi James: You might want to

Hi, low tech solution may be to produce second pips of audio with long one minute pips, a bit like WWV, and inject them into the mic plug (in parallel to the mic) or use a small speaker. That together with a clap-board start should enable any frame to be timed. cheers, Neville Michie On

Hi All. I now have the HP 117A but I find it has been modified for a 12 volt antenna. Looking inside I find a 3 terminal regulator that could be a factory mod except it is on perf board. Judging by the wires that come out of the harness I would say there used to be something in that place.

Hi there, It turns out that the NTP package has a built-in utility called tg which can generate IRIG-B time code. I'm not familiar with what you are trying to do. If you have a computer that is keeping accurate time (through your GPS clock??), you can generate a nice audio IRIG-B. It was
