Re: LF: F5WK EbNaut

Hi Markus,

I agree that the 3 second time offset comes from my side. Now I have to understand the reason and make the appropriate correction.
I returned home, and will concentrate on that problem.

Hi Michel,
 
I believe that RX timing was correct. The clock of the LF grabber PC is controlled by an NTP Client, and my Loran-C grabber is running on the same machine. If NTP had been off by more than a second, the Loran monitor would have jumped to the wrong 1pps pulse and lost the Loran traces.

Hi  Markus,

Does this 3second time offset come from my side ?  No intentional change to blame !
Could be a glitch with the VK16E GPS receiver - used only for NMEA, not for the GPSDO.

Hi Michel, after I realized that the time offset was now 3 seconds I got a few more decodes.

With the DDS, you could try to gradually advance the phase in 64 small steps to accumulate 360°. Best 73, Markus --
