The pcb 05245-60033 was part of the mod kit for upgrading 5245L and 5248L counters to put a 10811-60105 in place of the original 5243A-69A 1 MHz oscillator. Hence the times 10 divider on the pcb. The mod kit itself was part numbered 05245-60038. I have the details and can scan them if necessar

Thanks Rob, I did find a picture under their Cellular stuff that looked exactly like one of the RFG units, so I sent an email. If I hear back I'll let everyone know. In the mean time I came across some pictures that appears to be a RFTG-XO that has been taken apart. http://campus.pari.edu/k4cso/g

Hi Bruce, I forgot to say that I'm fairly certain that the interface is NOT NMEA. It's fairly easy to monitor on the main PCB. If I remember correctly I had to do a cold start or reset before it would acquire any satellites. I'd have to look through the menu options to be sure. Two out of the three

Hi, Robert, Thanks much! This is good information. I feel fortunate to have gotten one with the Magellan module. What I'm planning on doing (Since Zyfer doesn't seem to even care about these grand old beasties any more) is reading all the EPROMs, and any PALs that are in the un

Since the question was: > Doesn't it take a greate amount > of RF power to excite cold Rb? one should mention that it is NOT cold Rb that is excited. Instead, the whole of the resonator is heated up to give the lamp housing a temperature of 113+/-2 degree centigrade (FRK-L maintainance manual).
