I have participated the past few years mostly with the N8UR multi-op group.
My setup is as follows:
1. Receiver: Icom IC-745 or the Yaesu FT-100D (I threatened to use a
Hallicrafters SX-25 one year)
2. PC with sound card running DL4YHF's Spectrum Lab for the FFT work. The
receiver audio feeds

Hi John,
Very interesting. Do you have any pictures of previous
years, etc.? It would be nice to see.

Yes, I should have put up a link with my other message:
http://www.febo.com/time-freq/fmt. In addition to info about my
measurement technique and my results from each year's test, there's a
link at the bottom of the page to some pictures from the 2003 test. We
have some newer ones but I
You might also be interested in the 2005 analysis page (linked from
the URL above) -- some statistical analysis indicates that W1AW was
actually about 0.4 Hz off in the frequency they reported on 160M.
What are the theoretical limits?
If I only have N seconds of a signal, that sets a
I had planned to participate the last 2 years, but got distracted both
times. Hopefully, this year will be the charm :-)
I better have my GPS stabilized clock working by then (to drive the HP
3586A receiver, and the HP 3570A counter for the decoded audio), no more
excuses...
Interestingly,
