Hi all,
Hello Dani, sorry, but you cannot find some documentations, with
schematics, over more newer Hameg equipments, in all cases not from Hameg!

A while back I picked up a couple of what Fair Radio was calling data line
filters. They have a six-digit Nixie time display (hours, minutes, seconds)
and apparently decode and display some kind of analog time code (IRIG, maybe?).
It was made sometime in the early 70's; it's wire-wrapped with

There have been several (dont ask me for references) schemes for
synchronising
observatory clocks. The problem was often complicated by the
pendulums running in a vacuum or reduced pressure and thus being hard
to adjust.
The type I remember best was a weak electromagnet under the bob that

I acquired an old pendulum regulator from about the 30's-40's and it had an
electromagnetic coil and a small magnet attached to the pendulum. Some old
electronics passed a constant (but adjustable) current through the coil
either pushing or pulling the pendulum slightly to make its amplitude

Also consider a 1 Hz speed

and a non-ferrous one to slow down the arm using eddy current.

Thanks guys. Got the info I had been looking for. This group is a great
resource!
Only purpose for this project is so that the Westminster clock chimes at the
same exact moment at the GPS driven UTC LED display in the lab shows the

Why not! :- )

Maybe something like a Datum or AstroData.
The reverse code switch is for reading tapes backwards. It looks like a
modified standard product. It does not appear to interface w/ a tape
search controller.
At a guess it's mid 1960s to mid 1970s, to go w/ something like an Ampex
