[time-nuts] 9390-55108 IRIG

The refclock utilises AGC and winds the mixer input up to full volume.
It is supposed to be a mic input so it would be over loaded.

I think its AM as there is a carrier with peaks.
Perhaps a picture from an oscilloscope would be a better way to describe it?
Listening to it, I hear 1KHz and 50(100?)Hz hum?

Mark,

What is your ref clock driver 6 expecting to see?

IRIG-B can be in a modulated or un-modulated form (Datum called this DC
code)

The DC code was usually TTL compatible PWM and the IRIG-B would be 3V pk-pk AM. Marker 8 cycles, "1" 5 cycles and "0" 2 cycles wide. Spaces 1V pk-pk.

I am trying to get a Datum 9390-55108 to work with NTPD using refclock driver 6.
So far I have been unsuccessful.
The output looks like IRIG-B (modulated 1Khz with 50% greater amplitude
pulses) I can't get it to work with NTPD.
Unless of course, my NTPD version is broken!

Does anyone have information on these old type of 9390 that suggests the IRIG standard they output?
