Re: Repeating "GPSD: Location fix is now 2D/3D"


 

WSPR needs to be timed within the window.
Many microcontroller based WSPR (and some other modes) transmitters use the PPS to time the TX because microcontroller crystals won't keep accurate enough time when run over long periods of time.?

Also, since the WSPR TX frequency window is only 200 Hz wide (per band), many use the PPS to correct the frequency to keep in within the window over varying operating conditions (in place of a TCXO).?

I completely disagree, there are all sorts of things that need that precision in ham radio, Voting and simulcast to name a couple.

Ok.. you got me there.. simulcasting and accurate voting repeater systems really do need precision clocks but I would argue they only need accurate time amoungst eachother.? I don't know if they really need to be aligned to the world clock.? Anyway.
