Sorry, I misunderstood. My design was never intended for mass-production, but for a one-off board to experiment with DCF77. For that, a couple transistors and passives are cheaper than getting some kind of chip. While for mass production, even at "low" volumes of 1000/y, I'd immediatly go for a small chip to do the frontend. Attila Kinali -- It is upon moral qualities that a society is ultimately founded.
