The Cesium atoms make a one-way trip from one end of the tube the other; from a nice solid/liquid pool of silvery cesium in the oven to a splattered mess in the getter. So there's no restoring the tube that once that's done. Think toothpaste. Think ballpoint pen. Think taxes. Hi Tom, I have a used FTS-4050 unit that has a very high Cs current (meter is maxed) and generally doesen't seem to lock very well. Is there anyone in the market for a used FTS-4050 for parts? I would be interested to sell the actual Cs reference inside the unit. Want to keep the 19" rack mount enclosure though. The unit has a good 5MHz OCXO (modell FTS1200 I think), and of course there are all the Cs control boards inside which are probably still good. The OCXO makes this a nice parts unit. Wanted to see if anyone is interested in trading etc, otherwise I may put it on Ebay. bye, Said ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.
