Got my replacement FE-5680 and a MV89 in from Nichegeek. I figured
I'd better power up and check the MV89 before I let 'em know
everything was ok. The MV89 is warming up nicely, the current is
down to 290 mA (and still dropping), but the output seems low; about
40 mV RMS as measured on a scope with a 10Meg 10x probe. (Datasheet
spec is +7 +/- 2 dBm.) The output is too weak to reliably trigger my
5345A counter.
The reference voltage measures 4.90 VDC.
If anyone can make a quick measurement on their MV89, I'd appreciate it.
thanks!
