Re: U2 gps timing data
Hi Tony, I've only switched the U2 off gps once to check the 20mhz clock setting anf the results scared me so I switched the gps back in straight away. The seconds were very random, jumping up in

Re: U2 gps timing data
How far out is the nominal 20MHZ clock setting from the actual oscillator frequency Andy? I can't see how the unit could go off time over a few minutes? My understanding is that it resorts to its own

U2 gps timing data
Hi Hans, Just wondering if you could clear something up for me please. I thought timing sync came from the nmea data from the gps. It looks to me that once a pps signal is received, the U2 takes

Re: u2- v2.02a
Andy Yes I have various GPS units that I have yet to try with v2.02a; none of them worked with v2.02, even the UP501, which other people managed to work. My difficulty is lack of time at the moment to

Re: u2- v2.02a
Hi Andy Your email prompted me to make the obvious check: connections, I use females headers to the male pins on the pcb so I can remove the unit and other bits easily. Of course, one connector,

U2 and Trimble GPS
Hi All I've had my U2 working for a few days now with a Trimble (Silvana/Condor)GPS. The GPS is producing data & 1pps and sets the time and freq adjustment on the U2. However it does not seem to

Re: u2- v2.02a
Hi Barry, I think whats happening is the kit is waiting for the next transmit cycle so you may just have to wait a while after powering up before you see anything on the lcd. Did you have any

Help please. Just received v2.02a, inserted same, entered call-sign, message and other variables etc, and ran for 24 hrs to enable recalibration for time. After adjusting the ozzy for time, pulled the

Re: Arduino Shield - WSPR Software?
