Building oscillators, restoring old frequency standards, interfacing to a
clock or time display, and tracking your successes and failures is the lure.
For independent checking of time and to some extent frequency, I play with
several radio related approaches: WWV, WWVB, CHU, GPS, and Russian
Tsikada/Parus satellites. LORAN may or may not be going away. You will
often hear that time is the inverse of frequency, but the inverse of
frequency is period or time interval. Time is set by governments.
Have fun, explore,
