Hi, out of curiosity I want to build a ntp timeserver. I can remember some epxerimets I carried out with a DCF77 receiver and a Cobalt Qube years ago, however this never really worked out. My plan is to buy a soekris net4501 (http://soekris.eu/shop/net4501/net4501_30_board_only_en.html)

Many...  but a lot boils down to the fact that the Tbolt is designed from the ground up to be a time (and frequency) source.  Its 1PPS output can be stable to within a few nanoseconds and the frequency to a few parts per trillion.  The Garmin 1PPS output is spec'd at 1 microsecond,  plus you

Nothing wrong with wanting to use a Rb as the clock source for the board. I *almost* decided to go that route since I had a spare LPRO sitting around. But I realized that I would never need that long of hold-over so it would kind of be a waste. I've been looking at some cheap ($20 USD) 1PPM TCXO

Actually I was planning on getting a 33.8688 MHz TCXO, apparently there's a few sellers with them because they are used for audiophiles in their CD players? That way I don't have to use a clock-block or other circuitry to get a usable frequency. Have a look on ebay.280567398921. quite

Search for RUBIDIUM and you will also find a guy selling a divider card that takes the LPRO output and generates several clocks,  including 1 Hz...  cheaper and more versatile than the FATPPS A 1 Hz clock derived from a rubidium isn't synchronized to UTC second ticks. The PPS pulse out of a
