[chbot] Meeting Reminder: Monday 20th Feb 2012 6:30pm

[william]

i'll see if i can make it, i've done some updates (mostly firmware) to my 
BIN watch. and i can bring the lab supply i made, if someone can bring an 
oscilloscope i would like to measure its noise level etc

i've fixed some bugs in the watch, the automatic leap year calculation for 
one, and added in a few power save features so it lasts around a week on a 
charge as opposed to 1-and-a-half days. turning off the LEDs saves quite a 
bit of juice, and it draws around 3mA pulsing a beep every 5 minutes or so 
(at the time of writing it does it each minute but i will change it to every 
5 minutes)

i've taken quite a few old TV's apart and i have quite a few 4433 Khz Xtals 
if anyone's interested, they where quite old teles so the Xtal cans are 
relatively big
