Hi Colin, The MBF distribution modules are all simple buffers, and are mounted on the back panel. Being distribution modules, they typically have 4 BNC outputs per module.
The MBF module you want to modify is the one that *drives* the MBF distribution modules. It is of the same species as the distribution modules, but has other parts of the PCB populated to allow for divide/2, and certain filters. It is mounted on the *front panel*, has no, or maybe one BNC connector. It is also labeled MBF. EFRATOM took the module reuse business a little too far in my opinion. It would have been better if they would have made a different panel label for the two species of MBF modules. -Chuck Harris Colin Bradley via time-nuts wrote: > I just received an Efratom MFS-209 GPSDO that I purchased onEbay.
