    Time geeks, the story of how the US got time zones and a coordinated the time in them

    Trains used to stay on the local time of their origination station???

    That needed a School House Rock episode :)

    Hardware Hacking / Timenut Nerds: This is but a lightning talk, but I'll *really* be looking forward to it:

    "The cheapest GPSDO yet"

    It's going to be streamed!
    See you all at the European GNU Radio Days '24.

    My first go at a raspberry-pi GPS NTP server. 1μs predicted error ain't bad, but I plan on replacing the system clock crystal with a TXCO in the next few days to see if I can improve that.

    I used https://austinsnerdythings.com/2021/04/19/microsecond-accurate-ntp-with-a-raspberry-pi-and-pps-gps/ as a rough guide and https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/74482/switch-out-the-x1-oscillator-on-a-rpi-2-3/109074#109074 for inspiration on improving the system clock.

    More to come!

    Good news everyone!

    IERS Bulletin C Number 65 has just been published, and (as expected) NO #LeapSecond will be introduced at the end of June 2023.

    Unhappy because I found my $0.5 crystal is off by 4 parts per million. I think I'm on my way to be the #timenuts - every $1 microcontroller should have a hydrogen maser clock!!! :doge: #electronics #amateurradio #hamradio
