[hpsdr] High Accuracy Timing for HPSDR

[Alex]

Another OCXO vendor is Bliley Technologies in Erie, PA. (http://www.bliley.com). They have a couple packaging options. http://www.bliley.com/ocxo/ocxo.htm

The have a number of off-the-shelf designs that deliver in less than a week. http://www.bliley.com/index_069.htm

No, I don't have any affiliation with these folks.

Alex, N3NP

Hi Achim,

I know the Crystek folks.  If we can get a large order, we can bring the price down.  It was my encouragement that got them to offer the OCXO as a catalog order item.  Normally, OCXOs are build to order.  I've got quotes from several companies and the prices include NRE.  So this is a bargin, so to speak.

Buying HP 10811's surplus on eBay, I've spent easily $175.00 for one!  Having a source is important.  

I am always open for ideas.
