And then you'd have a GPSDST (GPS disciplined solar time) clock... While you're at it, add a rotary switch and allow the (JPL) user to select which planet's solar time they want to display. Since there are now only 8 planets you can also do it with a 3-bit configuration switch (now you know the real reason Pluto was demoted). If your project works ok for the earth clock, the next step is a jaw-dropping array of 8 (9) clocks in a JPL lobby showing the differently ticking solar time for each planet. Use 24h clocks for best results. They can be had from www.clockkit.com, an excellent source of DIY quartz clock parts. /tvb www.leapsecond.com _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
