> Are the specs at 5 MHz or at 10? They should be 6 db worse at 10 than at 5.
Now that I'm looking back at the data sheet posted with the auction, they were indeed specified at 5 MHz. But even after the 6 dB penalty, their spec limits versus their real-world numbers are pretty marginal. Morion actually announced this particular oscillator at IFCS 2002, so there's a paper of sorts: http://www.ke5fx.com/Morion_MV89A_IEEE_IFCS_2002.pdf . Figure 4 was taken from a 10 MHz part, but all three of the ones I've tested look like the attached. Same as figure 4 until about 200 Hz... then they never go any lower. -- john
