How far should entertainment go? In the opinion of some Space inhabitants we should rather try and roll our own instead of going off-shelf.

Not needed cause we get it

  • Note by Georges: I can "organize" an older meinberg clock, but without the antenna and it connects via serial port. Will bring it ASAP.
    • Nice! connects via serial meaning it gives a PPS on the serial line ?
