There hasn't been much discussion on the list about this idea. I know that Timing Solutions (now Symmetricom) used to make -- or at least advertise -- a "clean-up oscillator" that was a very low noise, very high short-term stability BVA oscillator that would lock to your Cesium reference. With a proper time constant (10s of kseconds?), that should give the best of both worlds with superlative short term performance and atomic long-term stability.

Hi Dick,

'cause it may not integrate long enough...
'cause it may have poor phase noise...

(it is however a very good question though, as one must
be really sure what it does and then be motivated to improve it...)

Dumb question time:

If the NavSync has an on-board synthesizer locked to GPS, why do
you need to lock that to another oscillator ??

Subject: [time-nuts] PLL question








Hi Guys,
I'm in the process of building a GPSDO which started out life based on G3RUH's design, but suffered a bit of feature creep.

The GPS I'm using is the NavSync CW12, so I'll run the Freq_Out at 10MHz. I'm wondering if I should run the PLL at 10MHz or if there is an advantage dividing the two signals down to (say)10KHz. Does the averaging at 10kHz (and introduced errors of the dividers) outweigh the 'no averaging' and no additional errors syncing at the fundamental freq? I can think of arguments each way, but lack the test equipment to prove either way.

Suggestions would be appreciated.

Regards,
ian
