[time-nuts] WWVB Dephaser Question

Hello Time Nuts,

I'm going to try a two antenna approach - parts are on order.

Buying a 2nd board vs. trying to implement a low-noise amplifier is a wash
for the cost
for the 2nd audio board.

It will require a few board mods - but they are simple.

When I have some interesting results, I will publish them to the group.

Yes, good if not great thread here - have enjoyed the discussion and hope
to see some good
results.

73's,
John
