e fuel when attracted by the ethanol? If the latter would an additional water separating filter between the tank and engine help solve the problem? Steve Willett

ect over sized micron no snubber probably coulda got it cheaper in 24volts with two Norcold anchors just downwind of West Marine leaky old crap with me. But I'm going, and not soon enough. Hope I see a few of you folks down there for Christmas! Doug Water Torture

originating out of Bluegrass Airport. I have never seen this sort of thing before. Conditions are not that good. K9AYA’s 10368.00 beacon is only 6 dB above the noise. It is the first signal I’ve heard of it in several days. I will continue to watch this condition and report anything new that I see. 73, Dave, K4TO

contribution of the offset reference oscillator to drop out. The nice thing here is that you don't need a super duper reference, one that's just "in the same league" as the standards being compared will do fine. Boards for the DMTD are floating around the list. I'd guess that if there was enough interest, we could get a buy going Another thing mentioned was a simple beat note system. All that's involved here is half of a DMTD board. If you have a "known best" local reference, you simply mix it with the device you are looking at. That's a nice system if you can offset the test unit, and are looking at ADEV. Not so useful for setting a part on frequency, or for testing stuff that can not be offset. The limitations of this approach are what got us the DMTD. While a DMTD is normally looked at as an ADEV tester, it's very possible to use one to set a device on frequency. The "error multiplication" can be huge. A 1 Hz beat note system will give you 1x10^7. You would need two computing counters (or similar PIC TIC stuff) to get the data into something you could understand. Weather 5334 counters or PIC TIC's are cheaper, depends on your scrounging skills. Bob

. It seems exceptionally late for Louisiana - did anyone get photographs of that bird, or is it possibly just a Northern? Luke Tiller, Greenwich
