Hi Jack,
Great scan!
I was also most interested to see you had scanned the manual for another
HP reference that I have - the 5501B. With an accuracy of 1x10-7 and
stability of 2x10-8 it's not that great but the frequency is 473612.23
GHz! For those who have not caught on yet, the 5501B is a
Sheeesh!
Actually I use the 5501B for its intended purpose... I'm a bit of a precision
nut. Never seen an Allan variance plot of one.
I prefer 473.6057788309637 THz :)

John -
Thanks for the reminder. My Austron has been sitting here dormant for so
long that I totally forgot that it took 12. Out of the original pack, I
could only locate 9 cells, but, I bet I tossed some just because they were
so corroded. Obviously from the battery cavity within the unit, 12 is

Hi Normand,
There are many factors which pull cesium too; and if
you want to get technical the actual frequency inside a
typical cesium standard, even at sea-level, isn't exactly

I can also tell you (having investigated this sort of thing)
that adding varactors to the cavity to tune it is a huge can of
worms that you want to avoid if at all possible.
Apart from being a can of worms, wouldn't it also be pointless ?

Hi!
I have collected some hyperfine splittings into a table with references.
I was reminded of this when asked offlist for the Rubidium splitting frequency.
Naturally, I would welcome feedback and contributions of both better resolution
measures as well as more isotopes.
Hmm this sounds like YAP! (yet another project). I've have 6 HP5517B's (new
version of the 5501B) who output are to low to use. Yet they will phase lock.
Scale this up to 4.

How is it possible? Lasers are energy sources, and (at
least for me), anything that is hit by a laser will
get warm, not cold!
Thanks for your attention..

Hmm. I think I have all the parts for this. Except the programmable polarizer.
