Abstract
We have developed a unique system using an acoustooptic spectrometer for precise timing of millisecond pulsars. This system can handle a signal of 50 MHz bandwidth with a frequency resolution of 200 kHz and a time resolution of 13 μs, and it can average 224 (7 h) pulses without any dead time
