); SAEximRunCond expanded to false Errors-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The UPS man just delivered a care package from my latest ebay purchase!!! I fired it up and found the front panel displayed properly, but no output on the 75ohm BNC connector, but the rear panel 21-60mhz aux works fine as mesured by a 5328a counter.
Pulled the bottom off and note that the 50 ohm output into the matching box has good signal - problem in the 50/75/150/600 assembly. Question - as I believe I only really 'care' about a 50 ohm output is there any reason not to use the raw 50 ohm output? At this time, I have no way of measuring levels (3586 is a future purchase) so I have no way of knowing how much the output levels are dependent on the matching assembly and what protections the matching assembly affords the output of the generator. Also - the 5328a has an undisciplined high stability oscillator, and the 3336a doesn't. At 10mhz they agree within .8hz +/- .5hz wandering around over the course of an hour. Not too bad for $125 on eBay for the pair of them (including shipping). Hope my luck holds... ____________________________________________________________________________________ Sucker-punch spam with award-winning protection. Try the free Yahoo!
