Jim- As soon as I hit the send icon, I knew I should have been more specific! :-)
How about this.......when I'm in the ham shack and I hear the clock down the hall (approx. 10mtrs away) chime, I'd like to be able to glance up at the large LED display at the top of one of the test equipment racks I have and see that at least the minute's digits read either: 00, 15, 30, or 45. And FWIW....the LED display is driven by the NMEA data coming out of the GPS RX inside a Z3810A. How's that? -Brian, WA1ZMS -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Lux Sent: Sunday, December 11, 2011 9:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [time-nuts] synch for pendulum clock....

Sounds like a cool idea...
