Dick, If you're asking about the FTS 1050A it was on Ebay. I believe Symmetricom still sells them but I can't justify buying one from them. bob On 4/3/2013 10:56 PM, Richard Solomon wrote: Just curious, where are you getting these from ? Tnx, Dick, W1KSZ On 4/3/2013 7:21 PM, Robert Darby

A little follow-up. I looked at all four 1000B outputs with the scope; one pair is at 1.2V rms and the second is at .7V rms. The waveform looks clean and is close to the 1.0V and .5V described on the spec sheet so I conclude that the oscillator is fine. I disassembled the doubler case to ch

Hi First step would be to lift the +22 feed wire and see if a current meter shows any current drain into the doubler box. The 7818 would suggest that you have no current, but it may just be well heat sunk. If there's no current into the box, it's time to open it up. Bob On Apr 3, 2013, at 2:5

Bob I have no schematics but some pics might be helpful in trying to understand why the 7818 has not incoming voltage. I speculate the unit plus into 110 VAC? The TNCs almost make sound like some cel tower thing. Regards] Paul WB8TSL On Wed, Apr 3, 2013 at 3:07 PM, Tom Knox wrote: > Hi Bob; > I

Hi Bob; I was wondering who won the unit. They are very nice oscillators. With noise on older equipment like the 1050A I would check and/or replace caps. I am about to do that to my own 1050A. It may not resolve the problem, but it will eliminate that possibility. I look forward to hearing how t

2013-04-03 Thread Robert Darby
I purchased an FTS 1050 recently and after a cursory inspection of the interior powered it up to see if it's functional. This particular unit is a bit odd; it has the optional battery back-up, no PPS, and instead of the usual 1Mhz, 5Mhz, 10Mhz it has four 10Mhz outputs with tnc female connecto
