Are these the references with a rubidium oscillator ? They seem to have similar models with OCXOs etc. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111862884745 --- Well now, how's this for a happy coincidence. I've just received an email from a friend

That's a very happy coincidence and one I'd hoped to hear. The pictures in the auction seem to show a lack of tarnish on the Ref Out and Ref In BNCs which suggests they have had plugs on them, looping the internal reference, other little bits of information also pointed to that, the remnants of a

Hi Mark, That was well understood when I stated that your life would have been easier had QT been used. It would have... DOS was a real pain for doing mouse and graphics stuff. QT makes it easy.. But QT would have also slowed a DOS era processor to a stop, and it would probably still be

I’m going to guess “no,” because only one thing can connect to the ser2net socket at a time. If I were going to do it, what I might do is connect up the PPS output of the tbolt to a GPIO pin of the RPi and configure that pin for the pps device and set up ntpd for that. That way, LH can have

If you telnet or nc into your rpi on port 3200, you should get a connection and you should get a bunch of garbage. If not, ser2net isn’t working. Is it running? sudo /etc/init.d/ser2net restart (did you do that after changing the config file?) If ser2net is working then it must be something
