Very interesting effects. I doubt that there was actually any injection-locking between the three Rb units, rather that you had all three frequencies presented together in various proportions, going into the test rig, due to the ground loops. For each signal being analyzed, there would be a tin

I think this done. Pretty sure that the True time doesn't work. Through the serail port you can inquire for various information like time date satellites and other details. But it does not put out as an example a NEMA sentences. Thats has all the details Lady Heather would need. Thanks everyone. Le
