[time-nuts] video of CSAC GPSDO

[SAIDJACK at aol.com]

Hi John,
 
well, I think he must have meant a new car back in 1971 :) That would be  
about right. It's not quite THAT expensive.
 
Symmetricom seized to exist as an independent company a couple of days ago, 
 they were bought out by MicroSemi..
 
They do make great products, for sure. Please note that I do not think that 
 the NIST CSAC effort had much to do with the commercialized Symmetricom 
product.  Same funding, but competing groups I think. NIST never took it to 
commercial  grade.
 
bye,
Said

Said,

Yes - Ha!  In the video, KF5OBS does say  something like the price of a new
car.  I have a very wide variance  for what that could be - a Scion xB,
Viper, Rolls Royce Bentley...,  Ha!

Great video - and thanks for letting us know about it.  I  actually went to
the NIST chip scale site the other day - very interesting  stuff.  And, I am
glad you guys are taking on such
a technically  ambitious project.  It would appear Symmetricon is a great
company to  work with.

Best Regards,
John W.
