Hi Gotz That's great stuff, thank you, I'll try that later. At this rate we'll soon be finding ways of doing this without any wiring whatsoever, perhaps we could start with just standing it upside down in a dark corner on the night of the full moon:-) Regards Nigel GM8PZR In a message dated 02/11/2014 17:58:12 GMT Standard Time, goetz@g-romahn.de writes: Am 02.11.2014 15:08, : > Ooh err, whoops, and oh dear !! > > Arthur, I've only just had a chance to look at your latest photos, and > unless I've really got my wires crossed, if you'll pardon the expression:-), > your links on J5 are not shown on pins 2, 10, 12, and 15, but on pins 4, 6, > 11, and 13. > > As far as I'm aware the numbering from the front of that connector as shown > starts in the top right hand corner and every row is numbered right to > left. > That's certainly how mine are numbered anyway, and I wired them > accordingly, and it worked, so where the heck does that leave us now?:-) > -------------------------- thanks Nigel for detecting this glitch. I removed all jumpers now and tested some reasonable new/old combinations resulting in very simple scheme: it seems to be sufficient to connect pin2 and pin3 to pin8 (ground).

Hi No, once we get the GPS end worked out, we need to do the same thing for the non-GPS end. If we can fake it into working with just a PPS, it’s the perfect thing to use to attach an OCXO to a newer GPS (like the Jackson Labs part …).

Hi Bob, There's also the option of the SSR-6Tr and adapter board from Synergy GPS.  It should plug right in.  You'd need the Oncore compatible version.  Kinda pricey though.

Hi It *might* plug in the GPS version. It also might report more sat’s than the firmware expects and everything would quickly die. That’s certainly the case with retrofitting some of the other early GPSDO’s. I think I’d rather play with faking out non-GPS version.
