About six years ago Sitex supplied us with a low-cost marine Loran
receiver which had a BNC connector that provided pulses at the "group
repetition interval". I used the GRI signal in a system to monitor
oscillator drift in some of our equipment for precision frequency
measurement. I think that Scitex charged just the list price (~600. at
the time) for this. With this starting point, one only needs digital,
rather than RF, talent.
