Re: (meteorobs) One-minute beeps
Hi Malcolm,
I use a simple tape recorder with micro cassettes. As time signal this is a
alarm watch with a countdown function (Casio W-732 H). When activity is very
high ; I put my watch on 1 minute intervals, synchronised with the correct
time of course. She will count down ; and every minute she give "beeps"
during 10 seconds.
Because the tape recorder is running without interruption ; every minute I
can hear this time signal on the tape recorder.
Greetings and good luck,
