Hi all, Do someone have an interpolation board for HP5370A pn 05370-60119 to sell? I have an Error 04 PLL not locked and vco range is out of range at +2.xx Volts on one of the two boards.

I tweaked the trim pot to set the frequency to 10,000,000.00 Hz, which is the resolution of my counter. The counter is synced to the Z3801A. The Ovenaire is exposed to ambient air, so I expect things to change as the day warms up. Using an IR thermometer, the OCXO metal can temperature varies a bit, but has a hot spot at 37.6 C. I'll have to dig out a contact temperature probe for more accurate readings. Later on, I'll put this thing in an enclosure, which should minimize temperature effects. Then I can see where the temperature stabilizes from the oven heat. The T.I. comparison will have to wait a few days, as I need my laptop for something else tomorrow night.
