Brooks Shera passed away last Saturday. There will be an obituary published
tomorrow in the Santa Fe New Mexican. It should also be available online.
As I have mentioned in the past I credit him with making available to time
nuts, radio amateurs and other hobbyists a method to obtain precise
frequency at an affordable price before commercial GPSDO's flooded the market.
At the time I personally had ten cesium's thanks to the bankruptcy of
Offshore Navigation I started building disciplined Rb's with the help of Brooks.
Eight and counting.
If there was a Hall of Fame for time nuts he would be # 1 on my list
