Thank you Nigel, I've also taken a gamble on one of these units and am
keeping my fingers crossed that it has a Rb standard in it.
The service manual is most interesting, it looks like I could use one of
the two 'loops' to lock a different OCXO, with a little tinkering it could
be a very useful unit as there's plenty of space inside for additions and
modifications.
Are these the references with a rubidium oscillator ? They seem to have
similar models with OCXOs etc.

Hi Clint,
As far as I know, from the outside they all look the same and that's the
problem, there's no way I can tell you from the available photos whether or
not those references have the rubidium oscillator.
I'd like to think they do, and will keep my fingers crossed for you, but
unless you can get more info from the seller it'll just be a case of wait and
see.
Chances are that if the original batch was supplied with the rubidium
modules then these will be too, might even be part of that same batch as I said
earlier, but there's still the possibility they might not be the same or
might have been got at somewhere along the line.
I've just found an online photo that will show you what they "should" look
like inside........
