2abb0f93cSkardel
3abb0f93cSkardelThis directory contains the sources for utility programs designed to
4*8585484eSchristossupport radio clocks.  chutest.c is desgined to test the depredated
5*8585484eSchristoschu_clk line discipline or STREAMS module and can also test a CHU
6*8585484eSchristosmodem in raw mode.
7abb0f93cSkardel
8*8585484eSchristosYou can make things in here by typing one or more of:
9abb0f93cSkardel
10abb0f93cSkardel	make propdelay (or `make')
11abb0f93cSkardel	make chutest
12abb0f93cSkardel
13abb0f93cSkardelPropdelay computes high frequency propagation delays, given the
14abb0f93cSkardellongitude and latitude of the transmitter and receiver.  Use
15abb0f93cSkardelthis for WWV/H and CHU.  Don't use it for WWVB (the computation
16abb0f93cSkardelis easier for that).
17abb0f93cSkardel
18abb0f93cSkardelChutest can be used to input and process data from a CHU modem
19abb0f93cSkardelattached to a serial port.  It will use the CHU line discipline
20abb0f93cSkardel(if installed), or raw mode otherwise.  This was used to test
21abb0f93cSkardelout the initial reduction algorithms, and may not be up to date.
