Patrick:

If you would like a very good GPS Disciplined Frequency Standard (better
than 5 parts in 10 -12, ~ $250) I would recommend that you consider the
HP-Z3801A.  See it at -

Hi All,

Is anyone using a GPS locked frequency standard ?

I would like to have a good reference or at least a precise method to
use my equipements.

Has anyone used the 1s clock coming out of a GPS receiver as a frequency
meter gate ?? My idea is to use this 1s rate, eventualy divided by 10 to
have a 10s rate, and feed it in my frequencymeter to have a precise gate
rate. Than measuring a 10 MHz TCXO should give 10000.0000. If not would
mean that the TCXO has moved and i can correct it to show the right
frequency and have a precise reference. At least at the time of measure.

Good or bad idea ?

73 ans season greetings, Patrick TK5EP.
