John,
I believe that the unit referred to is a Tracor 308A.
I no longer look to play with the Tracor units (304 308 600 900) as their
performance does not merit putting a lot of work into them. Thanks for
the heads up however!
The eBay # for the PRS10 is 321402060170

Corby, a friend of mine has a rubidium standard he wants to sell. I can't
remember exactly what it is, but I think it's an Austron 504(?) (704?). I sold
you one many years ago(like 20 or so). They came from one of the AT&T microwave
sites. His number is 308-532-3291 and he lives in North Platte,

Yes, you have to buid NTPD if you want PPS. This effects ATOM, NMEA and a
couple other refclocks. It can also be unpleasant beause you have to track
down timepps.h.

Hi Bill,
eBay has a search bar. If you type
PRS10 Rubidium
it will locate Corby's item and possibly other similar items.
You can "follow this search" too, and eBay will send you emails once a day with
any hits. I have close to a hundred saved search terms on file. See

Note a bug on the BBB is if you use a cape, it blocks the connector to

"The" serial port ? I assume you mean the UART0, aka the console ?
There are 5 others to choose from (UART3 doesn't have all the pins
