[time-nuts] Beginner's Atomic Clock

[Bob kb8tq]

Hi

What are you really trying to do here?

If it’s a “from scratch” atomic standard, then you just aren’t going to get 
there. Sorry about that ...

If it’s a wall clock sync’d to an external radio service then indeed you 
might get there. 

In-between those two lie tings like buying eBay telecom Rubidium’s, 
attaching them to a power supply and you have a working standard.

Lots of very different directions this could go and and they all could be 
called an atomic clock …. Not at all knock on doing something, just confusion
about what exactly you want to do.
