28P7.1 is an unnamed period-7 oscillator discovered by Dean Hickerson on November 1, 1998.[1] In terms of its 28 cells, it is tied with oscillators burloaferimeter, 28P7.2, and 28P7.3 as the smallest known period 7 oscillator.[2]

Using a sufficiently accessible dot spark, this oscillator can be phase shifted one generation backwards. The period of the resulting oscillator is the smallest number of the form 7n + 1 which is also a multiple of the spark period.
