[time-nuts] Auto TBolt TC Adjust

Hi

From looking at the numbers on a set of TBolt's it's apparent that adjusting the time constant after they have been on power for a while is a good idea. Something like:

Start at 10 seconds until pps is within 10 ns for 5 minutes 
Run at 50 seconds until the same condition is met
Bump to 200 seconds, check 
Bump to 1000 seconds 

More or less you would be making the TBolt do a dumbed down version of what the Z38xx's do. 

Before I go out and build up a gizmo to read TSIP and shoot the commands to the TBolt,  I thought I'd see if somebody had already made one of these up. Anybody have one of these already? 

Thanks!

Bob
