If PWM, did you have problems with noise or sensitivity to the USB-provided supply voltage? Also I have found that not all computer USB ports can supply enough warm-up current for a 5V OCXO. Or did you use a hefty USB charger and miss out on the ability to get logging info back over the USB port? -- --Jim Harman _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
