Hal, The HP 8160/61A boxes appear on *Bay fairly often. The HP8130/31A are there infrequently, but worth having. Pete Rawson ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts

[time-nuts] 100 MHz Source

I need a 100 MHz source to lock up a F/W brick. I have 10 MHz available from my GPSDO. Anyone know an easy way to get 100 MHz using the 10 MHz source ? Maybe another PLO ? If I multiply then I need some pretty decent filtering which might be difficult. Thanks, Dick, W1KSZ __

Re: [time-nuts] 100 MHz Source

I have a HP70310A. It's the time reference for the HP/Agilent modular MMS system. It seems that the ebay prices for this stuff varies quite a lot depending on random factors. I think I got mine for a couple of hundred dollars. It has a McCoy OCXO and provides 10MHz and 100MHz outputs. You c

Re: [time-nuts] 100 MHz Source

Hi Dick, I think a very inexpensive and simple way to multiply the 10MHz to 100MHz is the following. It only uses three standard CMOS chips: Use a 100MHz VCXO to generate your output frequency. Digikey has one for $28: Digikey number 744-1213-ND. This part has about -160dBc/Hz noise floor,

[time-nuts] any experts at repairing WaveTek 288's?

This may be a little too far off the topic of this list -- if so, feel free to ignore this message :-) I'm trying to get a WaveTek 288 back in working order. First problem is that the rotary switch on the front panel doesn't work. Checking with a multimeter, it never closes any switches when rot
