[time-nuts] If there a FAQ

[Chris Albertson]

I'm new to this list.   Before I ask a lot of questions maybe someone
can point me at some reading material.

I've decided I want a decent frequency reference for normal ham radio
stuff like calibrating test equipment, testing oscillators for
stability and so on.
I figure at first I'll start with something simple.  I'll build
something around a TXCO chip and I'll build a single purpose WWV
receiver.  Later I'll
buy a GPS receiver that has the 1PPS feature and get a better local
double oven osc from HP.

First question is a source of parts.    Where to get the TXCO?,  Is
there a preferred design for WWV receiver,  What low cost GPSes should
I look at?

Pointers to reading material would be great.


Thanks.
