Dave, dcn5 seems to be exactly (modulo a few milliseconds) four hours fast! Whenever I start to wonder about how much redundancy is really needed, something like this comes up to straighten me out! Mohamed

Hi, I'm trying to compile xntp on a CD4360 (MIPS 3260) and there doesn't seem to be a _dosynctodr variable in the kernal namelist. Has anyone had experience with this machine? (It's pretty much just a MIPS 3260 with some value added stuff -- the OS was renamed EP/IX, but is derived from MIPS' RISK-OS). Thanks Joe

Mohamed, Tilted ticker dcn5 appears recovered from its recent illness (1546Z 4 June). Anecdotal evidence suggests a summertime flu, usualy brought on by overly eager ions in the magetosphere. The fuzz reports several instances where the timecode was demonstrably broken, not unheard of with the Spectracom clocks, now over a decade old. I'm cycling some of them back to the barn for upgrade to new firmware, but I bet that doesn't nix the promiscuous ions. After all, a radio is a radio. Thanks for the alert. Dave
