That is what we are working on.
BOB and JOHAN (KC7WW) have a DOS version up running and are refining
it. You do need a GPS with a 1 PPS output in addition
tostandard NEMA output (time variances on many GPS NEMA outputs make
the 1 PPS necessary) Bob has worked out a reasonable stand alone
program to insert into the DSP-10. He might release it as a Stand
alone DOS but work is still needed to make it stand alone reasonably.
The Axiom Sandpiper is such a GPS engine with 1 second PPS and is
available on E-Bay for 18 bucks + 5 shipping. It works and sure is
cheap. We have about 6 out scattered around out here with people
working on the problem. Of course the UT+ we use in the Frequency
standard does very nicely ( at a binay level) and we have included
it in the DOS Program. I use WE alot, but Bob is doing all the work.
KC7WW and myself (W7CQ) have been working on a switching arrangement
to switch the computer serial port between the DSP-10 and and the GPS
and have that area working.
It will all be available soon as Beta Testing is Done. The DOS
version Stand alone is still being discussed.
