-====== The Datatrak signal ======
+====== Datatrak signal -- technical details ======
 At the top level, the Datatrak signal consists of //sync data// and a series of time-multiplexed //navigation slots//. Each transmitter is assigned one or more //slots//, which are either //master slots// (the transmitter generates the slot without a reference) or //slave slots// (synchronised to a master slot).

 A cycle takes the following form:

+^  $F_1$  |  Sync and timing  |   1..8  |  9..16  |  Sync and timing  |   1..8   |  17..24  |
+^  $F_2$  |  Sync and timing  |  9..16  |   1..8  |  Sync and timing  |  17..24  |   1..8   |
-Chain 2 timing is the same, except the sync data is sent on $F_2$.
+Chain 1's master provides the $F_1$ sync and timing, while chain 2's master provides the sync and timing for $F_2$.
