[time-nuts] Rb as source for ADEV?

[Bob Stewart]

I think I see the problem.  I was wondering about using the 1PPS output from my Rb in a test.  Cobbling all that together would be a quick bit of work for you, but I spent my life in IT.  I'm good with a soldering iron, but I readily admit my shortcomings at hardware tinkering.
