Re: [Elecraft] WTB: 10-MHz Test Oscillator Wanted

Keep an eye out on the "e=place"!!  Look for a Measurements Corporation 
Model 111 crystal calibrator.  They can be zeroed to WWV and stay within 
just a few parts per million if kept on all the time.  I have seen them 
quite cheap at time there.  Excellent little oscillator.

Hello,

Want 10-MHz crystal oscillator that puts out a volt or so for frequency 
counter calibration check.


Must have cap to set freq zeroed onto WWV for a few minutes operation; no 
long-term stability required.

Something like the XG1 ... battery, BNC, not fancy.

Thought this would be simple search ... a kit-builder's project. Guess 
nobody's making such a kit.


Anybody have or know where to get?

Thanks,
Alan

Don,
The XG1 output isn't enough signal for the scope (and its output, which 
is connected to my freq counter).

No adjustment cap either.

http://www.aade.com/newfreq/new%20freq.htm does have merit. If there's a 
cap in there to

tweak at some future time, then it should do the trick.

Thanks,
Alan--

Alan,

Why not just build an XG1 and put a 10 MHz crystal in it - it will 
only do -73 dBm output as a stock item, but I am certain you could run 
it through an amplifier.


Of course, there is always the AADE frequency standard that claim 1ppm 
long term accuracy.

Alan, M3 Electronix, Inc has such an item that they have for
sale as a completed item.  Used in calibrating their FPM-1
Frequency Counter/Power Meter Kit.  Also you might
want to look for an HP-10811 Crystal Oscillator that often
shows up on EBay...this can be slaved with GPS for an
extremely active 10 MHz standard with some additional
electronics...or for more money go with a ribidium
unit.
