Oh. 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.
