GPSDO – getting closer

[Today’s run: 1.5 miles alternating run/walk with wife and dog]

I made a bit more progress on my 10 Mhz frequency standard  (GPSDO = GPS disciplined oscillator].

I have all of the component parts.  Now I have to work on interconnections.  I need to sit down and map out which connections will have 10 Mhz running on them and whether some parts need to be shielded in a box of some sort.

I have always had problems with connections to circuit boards.  They make “headers”, which are of standard sizes.  But I never seem to have any of that kind of thing.  And the old junk that I tear apart has weird combinations of connectors, number of wires to the connectors, etc.  So I’m going to contemplate for a bit and see if anything gets clearer.
