I wonder, since you are emulating the crystal output, if the R820T would
ordinarily drive the crystal to rail-to-rail, square wave output. It might
be worthwhile using a high impedence probe to see what the signal you are
replacing looks like.
I say this because the elonics patent suggests that s
I use R820T. It has nonzero IF and the noise is relatively flat.
The clock looks sawtooth-like on the scope.

opposite.

Juha,
Ordinarily, I would choose to feed a clock into xtal_in, this seems logical.

Well, I certainly would be keen to hear your further reports on this.
One thing to consider is that if you're going to build a fan-out buffer, you might as well build a 28.8MHz source using one of the easily-available 14.4Mhz TCXOs that are "out there", and design
a doubler--this will give you a
Hi,
I modified my clock sharing so that I only insert a signal in the Xtal_In
pin of other dongle. This way I won't have two circuits driving the same
crystal, as Ian pointed out. The pin next to the edge of the dongle turned
out to be the Xtal_In pin (the input of the opamp on the slave dongle).
Hmmm, interesting.Was this with E4000 tuners, or R820T tuners?
What was your exact test setup, tuned-frequency, etc?

Hi Marcus,
Interesting discussion. I was wondering how well synchronized clocking
might work. Was hoping it would work better than it sounds. Could
you quantify the level of phase noise you're seeing, like with a power
spectral density plot?

I did a similar experiment with R820T based dongles using an external high
quality reference and a common signal source.
The results were poor with a lot of mutual phase noise between two dongles.
What sample rates did you try and was this E4000 or R820T tuners?
