I have one of these as well, interesting instrument. I used it with an adapter
for a while then one day got tired of that and found a nice BNC from my bin
which fit beautifully and got rid of the weird connector. It's much nicer this
way. At these frequencies the connector type is based on usability convenience
and for me the BNC was just a lot easier to deal with. Perhaps the day that
wiggling the adapter made the readings move a few tenths of a dB convinced me.

Got one of these massive (by today's standards) beasts the other day.
It has the option 003. Quite the light show when it powers up.
I have its external reference daisy chained with a radio and two other
instruments sucking 10 MHz from my Thunderbolt.
I have not decided what to do with the AT&T front panel input.
Should I get a BNC adapter for it? Or replace it with a BNC
connector?
