[time-nuts] Time Code generator

[Jeroen Bastemeijer - EWI]

Dear time-nuts,

A PIC based IRIG timecode generator sounds very interesting! Would like to build a new stand-alone IRIG-timecode generator since my Brandywine died....

Did some Google-searches without succes.... unfortunately! :-(

Best regards, Jeroen

There is a utility in the ntp package that emits IRIG based on the local 
clock.  Look at .../util/tg2.c

You might be able to port that code to PIC/Arduino.  Start by ripping out all 
the options that you don't need and the command line processing and ...  It 
might be a lot of work but the price is right.
