Efratom FRS Manual

[Frank Gentges]

Marcus,

Too bad but I hope the manual helped you avoid waisting coultless hours 
trying to fix the unfixable.

I had good luck several years ago using the 1 PPS from a GPS receiver to 
compare with the 1 PPS from a divider from a frequency standard to track 
the frequency standard's drift.  I used a frequency couter in the period 
measurement mode and logged it daily.  After observing the log I would 
adjust the frequency standard.  Earlier adjustments let me calibrate the 
adjusment, which was on a 10 turn pot with a nice dial.  Once I had the 
dial calibrated in frequency shift, I could pretty much put the standard 
on frequency.  Once I got good at that, I could predict the daily drift 
of the standard and could make the adjustment based on that.

I found it very educational doing all this.  Its nice to share my hard 
earned knowledge.  I hope you enjoy doing it too.

Best new year and 73
