MSF Receiver again
This has had a "new coat of paint" to misquote the Rev R.W. Awdry, and a few software revisions since the earlier photos.
Revisions to the Arduino IDE required some tweaking of the code to allow the compiler to run without errors.
I caused the original 60kHz receiver to go faulty inadvertently whist "fault" finding - this had stopped working, but it turned out that the problem that was the Time Code transmitter (MSF itself) was off the air for maintenance.
I replaced it with a different type of module (A "Canaduino" unit from Canada), and have since managed to get the original one working by running it off a much reduced supply voltage. The orignal module is now back in my "test bed" with some supplementary circuitry to allow it to work in that environment.
