I'm sure experienced time-nutters won't do something like I did - because it was stupid.  But I'd like to share this nevertheless. I need a multi-turn pot and I bought a cheap clone from Amazon - because it was cheap and delivery was next day.  It came with a multi-counter knob.  Well it's

A puzzle (so I hope) I'm in the correct place. I've built myself, many years ago an NTP server, on a RPi 1, which not sure if ever ran properly. It uses a u-blox6 board, connected to the Pi correctly, and PPS to GPIO, compiled NTP to include kernel PPS support. GPS 3D fix is fine, using an

You might also look at the IGLOO nano from Actel (now microsemi). Low power, small package, 250MHz, as few as 100 logic elements. Unfortunately Microsemi. -- mike On Fri, Jul 3, 2020 at 7:44 AM Hal Murray wrote: > > jim...@earthlink.net said: > > 1) All those clever handbook designs and data
