Simple WSPR Beacon using Si5351 and ESP8266 NTP for time sync

Wanting to play with a simple WSPR Beacon in the house where I can't
receive GPS for time synchronisation, I've hacked together a beacon using
an Si5351 oscillator and an ESP8266 board that joins my Wifi and gets the
time from an NTP server.Here's the rig:It starts off by joining Wifi, then requests the time from time.nist.gov. Next it figures out how many seconds
to wait before the next 2 minute
