I did not ask _for_ a reference distribution amplifier.
I asked whether anyone had used the MAX2470/2471 in such a
design, specifically in regards to its residual phase noise.

This is from home. I'll not be at work until next year.

Lux,
It is one more confimation that my assumption is valid.

Bruce,
these articles are more or less the answer to my question.
In principle, there is obviously reduction in noise, and the main
concerns are uncoupled frequency difference and phase.
Thanks,

Bruce,
I know the math, and possible perils. The main question is still:
Does statistics help? Is it going to be better?
If I do try, I'll use a bunch of 13 MHZ TCXO's, because I have only
3 10811, and more than 30 TCXOs.
Also with a higher number of lower quality oscs improvement could

You may want to look at:

Some of Len Cutler's engineers at HP attempted to build
an ensemble of nine 10811 oscillators. It was quite
non-trivial and I'm not sure they ever completed
the project. I doubt whether just letting 10811's
self synchronize would result in satisfactory performance.

Hi, Time -Nuts,
Did anyone try to deliberately allow syncronisation of two
oscillators, by , for example paralleling outputs of two 10811.
I expect to see some benefits from the usual statistics: Phase
noise divided by sqrt of 2and also decreased amplitude random
frequency jumps.
