Hello, All-- RE: Tom Van Baak's comments on his preference for a CNS-II for long-term, high -accuracy UTC measurements (against Cs or maser) included the statement:
> I don't use a GPSDO. Instead I use a plain, non-disciplined > OEM GPS board or something like a CNS II" (http://www.cnssys.com/cnsclock/CNSClockII.html). > High-end, short-term, or low phase noise, you always use > quartz; long-term you always used GPS. The cool thing about > a GPSDO is that you get (almost) the best of both in one box. -------------------------- This got me to wondering.....: My primary need for a GPSDO is as a 10MHz house frequency reference to externally lock my spectrum analyzer up with. I currently have a Trimble Thunderbolt running and it seems to be working OK-- Is this a good choice for a 10MHz long-term frequency reference that does not require hocking my wife's car to pay for...? (she might notice if I did that...) I will be a happy camper if I can reliably measure up to the upper frequency limits of my Tek 497P/494P (21GHz) to within +/- a few hundred Hz... Any feedback on this will be most appreciated!!
