All:

I purchased and am about to hook up the Nortel device.

Someone on this list expressed an interest in my old Z3801, but I lost the email. If still interested, please contact me off list.

Thanks & 73,
Jim

My Z3801 no longer works, and I've not been able to get any new ideas on it, so am looking for a replacement.

I've come across a nice 10 MHz that has very good phase noise (-145db or so at 10 KHz offset), but costs $175 in single quantities (digi-key, I think.) I was considering using one of W1GHz's boards to lock it to a jupter GPS engine that I already have. Several people have told me this is overkill, recommending the Thunderbolt.

I've read that there are various OXCXs used in Thunderbolts, some OK, some not so good.

Looking on ebay right now, I see a Nortel Trimble NTBW50AA, a Symmetricom, NTBW50AA, and another Nortel.

Does anybody have experience with these? I'm particularly interested in the best phase noise I can get. This will be station master frequency reference, and will ultimately lock stations up to 10 GHz.

Thanks & 73,
