So, at or around 1981 (the year I was born) there was a cool concept.
IBM was selling "personal computers" (IBM-PC compatible later became a
thing) and by the time I was old enough to operate a modem, I had one
myself. Life was good.
Wonder if there is any sensible way to petition microsoft to fix

Just a FYI for those on the list in the bay area.
I had planned on going and still might, but I messed up my foot and
should probably stay off it.

There are two mechanisms for splitting a pile of messages into threads. Some
mail readers sort by the Subject field
Unless it is a bad tantalum capacitor, as suggested: in this case yes, it
has to be fixed.

Dear Azelio,
Thank you. You are right regarding the GPIB operation but since I was looking
for a high resolution frequency counter as well for a versatile basic
instrument to start measuring with, I choose this frequency counter.
Hunting for a better unit right now will not be a priority as th

You will be using the counter much on the GPIB than looking to the display,
so try to keep the unit untouched. Better to use it and think about another
one, now that you have one, you are not in a hurry so you can select a
better one. You can also hunt for an SR620 or a Wavecrest... 25pS (or less)
Dear Group,
Good morning! I just got my first HP-53132A frequency counter and Prologix
GPIB-USB converter. Now I can do some measurements and I am excited about it.
Everything looks promising. Condition of the instrument on the outside is like
new, controls responsive and no fading in letterin
Hi
If you want Adev of < 1.0 x 10^-11 at a tau of 1 second, then a counter
probably is not going to do it for you. To do a reasonable job on "time nut"
grade stuff you probably want something with a floor of < 1.0 x 10^-13 at a
tau of 1 second.
You have several choices:
1) Forget about 1 second
Hi Volker,
Universal counters like 53132A or SR620 or CNT-91 do quite well for making
measurements of GPSDO. Over minutes or hours they easily measure down to the
1e-12, 1e-13, and 1e-14 level. But yes, for short averaging times the noise of
the counter is probably greater than the instability
Dear fellows,
I'm searching for a counter that allows me to make automated measure
series. Of course, Allan Deviation is an important thing to determine
when experimenting with or developing GPSDOs (what I intend). So it
seemed to be a nice thing to measure phase deviation with a counter (HP

The trick is to start a new mail (press "Write" or "Compose") instead

Yes, you send a mail with a new subject. Please don't CHANGE the subject of a
thread or topic, as that doesn't actually start a new topic.
I also suggest that you send email to the reflector as "Plain Text".

Fellow time-nuts,
I am new in this mailing list and a little bit unfamiliar with it, so I
hope I'm not doing something stupid.
How do I start a new topic? Simply send a mail with a new subject?
Thanks a lot
