[time-nuts] Firmware and antenna for Stanford Research FS700 Loran C frequency standard

[Dr. David Kirkby - Kirkby Microwave Ltd]

Does anyone know of the latest firmware for the Stanford Research FS700 Loran-C 
frequency standard? I know someone who has one with firmware 1.20, but I don't 
know if there's any later firmware. I recall asking Stanford Research about 
firmware for the SR620 but got no response, so I don't know if I will have any 
better luck with the FS700.

What's the best sort of antenna for these? I know Stanford sell one, and by the 
cost of new professional equipment, the $250 is not abnormally high, but I'd 
rather look at building something if I purchase one of these standards. I did 
think of using a half-wave dipole, but my garden is just a wee bit  too small.:-)
