Wayne good read on the paper. All of the spectracoms and such were rendered useless by the new BPSK modulation. Though now that 5 years or so have passed not so new. Unless the modulation is accounted for they can't track the carrier. There are external modifications and other approaches that have been suggested. I have design and tested numbers of them with a final approach using the cheat'n d-psk-r. Won't go into that as its been shared here on time-nuts enough. A lot depends on your location and signal strength. Clearly taking advantage of the new modulation for carrier prediction has advantage. But the fact is even I am now spoiled by GPSDOs. I also built a far simplere approach called a remodulator for simply allowing the spectracoms to get time. They are nice displays. Not sure you can get even those piece parts any longer.
