01:31 AM rue_mohr: its funny, likes on the 1 bit thing are stacking up, but REALLY slow and steady...
01:41 AM rue_mohr: started drafting the schematics for the version with serial programming, but ran out of time
02:15 PM polprog: i found out how to retune one CB radio (and probably all others that use stupidly made digital synthesizers) from the "fives" to the "zeros"
02:16 PM polprog: basically in europe 27MHz band CB radio is shifted by 5kHz in some countries to make i dont know
02:16 PM polprog: make life harder
02:16 PM polprog: the channel spacing is 10kHz
02:17 PM polprog: ok, it makes sense. "<<zeros>> and <<fives>> were distributed throughout europe so as not to impede commnications when the signal is reflected from the ionosphere"
05:25 PM polprog: I need to build a 10.235M oscillator
05:25 PM polprog: 5kHz off a 10.24M crystal
05:25 PM polprog: they say it can be pulled with a series inductor..
