Given that the divider load current, if one substitutes a 5V CMOS flipflop for the 7474, only increases to about 5mA pp, using a 74HC74 is probably prudent given the PCB layout used, in that it may avoid EMI issues that may be a problem with faster logic. However it may then be prudent to attenuate the output of the divide by 2 fliflop to avoid overdriving the following emitter coupled pair.

The schematic is available here: http://www.murgatroid.com/t_and_m/hp-00105-6100-figs.pdf . It's also available with circuit description & waveforms here: http://www.kennethkuhn.com/hpmuseum/scans/hp5065a_part3.pdf on pages 93-101 (pdf pages - not document pages). However, this copy doesn't show the schematic for the power supply board. I also see that document page 8-54 is missing which might be the problem.

If you send me the schematic for the circuit in which its used I can answer that question better.

Perhaps, but given what it's replacing and what it's driving, is the difference significant?

Yes, I have the same configuration. The part number for the divider board is 05061-6165. The 10811 + daughter boards are used in the 105B, 5061B Cesium, and the 5065A Rubidium. The circuit loading problem is exactly the kind of issue I was expecting. Thanks for the warning. I could probably resolve it by replacing the existing 7474 with a 74HCT74, but I'd like to minimize the amount of hacking I inflict upon the unit.

A 74AHCT74 would be a superior replacement.
