A commend regarding your ZCD. You propose to use a dual 120V primary

Unless specifically designed for that purpose, the isolation between the
two 120V primaries of a common transformer is probably not as good as the
I opened it up and found a 4 by AA cell battery holder for power, and
a single module that looks pretty proprietary. One side of the module
has a patch antenna, and the other has the brain. I assume there's an
RF board in between, but cannot open it further without possible
damage - the
Hi Charles,
I have a question about the accuracy of your scheme, given
transient effects.
Transformers, such as are in wall warts, etc..., are wound
in a way that is pretty good for 50Hz/60Hz operation, but have
had nothing intentionally done to normalize operation at any
other frequency. Nor
It seems to me that a low voltage secondary should be OK by using a
fast comparator IC rather than a transistor to decide - the gain of
the IC allows for much smaller detection levels, so the equivalent
zero-crossing velocity could be the same. An IC tripping in a 10 mV
band should provide the

I have just put the first preview release of my new NTP client

Mike,
That was a nice set of homework reading you provided for us.
People might have missed it.
Cheers,

I have a few Rubidiums and OCXOs I'd like to get running for a month
or so to stabilize. During this time, I'd like to monitor the
performance to discover any bad units and see

Hi all,
My phase noise measurements system give erroneous results in close in phase

than expected.

I peeled open the shield can without too much deformation, so it can
be restored. I found that it's a single board, with the DSP on one
side, and the RF section on the other. It is a Rockwell chipset, with
11577-11 DSP, and 6732-13 RF. On searching I found that this seems to
be called their
