demodulated IRIG-B, which seems a bit odd. Either it's a modulated code

it's what we call a DC code i.e pulse width data stream not superimposed on

That sounds neat. My recollection of SAW filters from many moons ago is that
they have a fair amount of insertion loss. One always has to consider
trade-offs. Do you know if it is placed after the antenna and before the
LNA, or, is it after the LNA? Also, you probably meant -159 dBm of

Hi
Since the idea here is to keep an existing GPSDO running, the DGPS input stream
isn't an option. Same goes for per sat corrections. You just don't have access
to the stuff you need to get at inside the beast.

The datasheet posted on eBay says 12V supply and 5V control voltage but
it looks like they just copied the one for the MV89A. If they are truly

Has anyone out there circuit diagrams for a HP8713C network analyzer?
The generate port is fine, but the transmission or RF IN port is faulty

I've attached the data sheet for the STP2145A. The device is 12V

the EFC circuit.

Thank you very much for the datasheet. That confirms my suspicion about what

Mike,
The saw filter is between the antenna and the LNA. You're correct as
to the sensitivity measurement; it is -146 dBm acquisition and -159
dBm tracking. It also specs 1PPS accuracy of 22ns, 1 - sigma.
Here is a link to the data sheet:
Hi,
I recently noticed something interesting: The DMTD measurement gives a set
of phase values x(t). From which fractional frequency y(t) is calculable. So

This is not a low noise PS, IMO. There is far too much ripple on the
outputs for that.
Furthermore, I'd bet it has real radiated EMI issues.

I had this problem when using some ultra low light imagers. They have NO PSRR,
and the integration times were up in the 1-3 second range, so any noise on the
pixel supply ended up in the image.

Hi All. Thanks for responding. There are quite a few GPS receivers that will
work outside of the usual commercial-grade GPS limitations, but I'm not too

messages for a data recorder, my thinking is to allow a
This is a surprise:
in reality more than 90 percent of the users of GPS worldwide use it
primarily for a timing reference.
That makes the LORAN shutdown look even more idiotiuc!
