I haven't checked the pps either. But the reason to put the 15 Mhz into standby is that they combine both signals in a resistive combiner and distribute the signals to multiple radios. If two were active it would create issues. This method avoids the gap switch of a relay. Regards Paul WB8TSL On

Hi The cell phone base only needs one reference to keep it running. They disable the un-needed output to make it clear which one should be used. It’s a very common thing in modern systems, not just telecom setups. Bob On Dec 13, 2014, at 11:55 PM, Hal Murray hmur...@megapathdsl.net wrote:

Can somebody confirm that the PPS and 15 MHz on the standby unit are disabled? Does anybody understand how/why they do things that way? Is that a typical Telco interface? If anybody is poking around inside and find a simple way to turn them back on, please share. The PPS is 400

I haven't checked the PPS yet, but the 15 MHz from the standby unit is off on my setup. Joe Gray W5JG On Sat, Dec 13, 2014 at 9:55 PM, Hal Murray hmur...@megapathdsl.net wrote: Can somebody confirm that the PPS and 15 MHz on the standby unit are disabled? Does anybody understand how/why they
