[ForSale-Swap] Help. Need info on Develco WWVB receiver

[Phil Atchley]

Hello
I have a Develco Inc model 3202BR "WWVB Time Code Receiver" that I would
like to use as a Highly selective "final" IF with my beacon chasing
receiver.  (It has 1000 & 100Hz selectivity).  I have tested the unit and it
does indeed receive WWVB (60kHz) well 24 hrs a day with just a modest
antenna, so the sensitivity will be more than sufficient.

My problem is that I have no docs, schematics etc on the unit and I 'may'
need to modify it some to do the job I want it to.  (I intend to tap the IF
of my receiver and feed a mixer down to 60kHz).

Also, it has what is apparently an internal standard and a "Slicer"
threshhold and slicer output.  While not having data I 'suspect' this may be
a digital voltage output synced to the time pulses.  This 'might' be useful
for either making a "visual" display of the beacon CW ID or keying an
oscillator to give a "clean" audible output.

A search of the Web produced NO info on this unit (Google or otherwise).
Has anyone every seen/used one of these as I intend to?  As it is a single
height rack mount unit and is only half full I have lots of room for 'mods'
and additions.

ALSO: Anyone have a schematic of the unit.  With a schematic I probably
wouldn't need much additional documentation.
