[time-nuts] Austron 2201 Firmware past Y2K
Hi; I have finally found a 70MHz IF GPS ant only to find the Austron 2201 is not Y2K complaint. Has anyone found a solution for this problem? I have looked at past threads and come up short, but thought I saw this problem addressed in the past.

Yepper Simply set the date back by rollover time there is a gps date converter online that I use to figure it out http://csrc.ucsd.edu/scripts/convertDate.cgi?time=1992+07+16 Regards Paul WB8TSL On Fri, May 25, 2012 at 1:32 PM, Tom Knox act...@hotmail.com wrote: Hi; I have finally found a 70MHz IF GPS ant only to find the Austron 2201 is not Y2K complaint.

[time-nuts] Trimble Resolution-T versus Resolution SMT
I got in a couple of Resolution-T receivers from fluke.l and have had a chance to compare them with the Resolution SMT: The -SMT receivers appear to be new. Mine were the TEP variant (Motorola compatible) that has to be reconfigured to be TSIP compatible. The -T receivers are used. Mine came with locations in rural China stored in their survey position. The -T serial port comes set for 9600,8,Odd,1 (Tbolts are 9600,8,N,1) The receivers are physically and electrically compatible. They are mostly software compatible. The -SMT only works at fixed locations. The -T can work in mobile applications or as a general purpose GPS receiver. The -T is a 12 channel receiver and the -SMT is 14 channel. The -SMT is 6-8 dB more sensitive. The -SMT tracks and reports info on all sats that it sees (even if below the elevation and signal level masks). The -T only tracks and reports info on the sats above the masks. The -T has a +/-20 ns PPS, the -SMT has a +/- 14 ns PPS. Both support external sawtooth correction. The -T responds to the dynamics filter (0x70) message. You can enable the PV, Static, Altitude, and Kalman filters (Kalman overrides the others). The -SMT serial port occasionally glitches messages. The -T receiver shuts down for a couple of seconds when writing parameters into its EEPROM. ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
Re: [time-nuts] Vectron TRU-50
I chased the TRU-50 down with Vectron. It's not a stock part, horribly expensive, special order, and has been obsoleted (ain't American English grand?). They would let me buy 10 of some that were on the shelf for the 100 price of $59.00 each. A Schmartboard, TI (formerly National) PLL, and a common vcxo is probably a much better way to go for diddling around.

Also make sure your batteries are not dead on the CPUs as I recall mine was replaced it.
