Hi If you are buying them on eBay, it is not at all clear which OCXO your A or B will show up with. The 10811’s get swapped back and forth with earlier units in a lot of used gear. One might *think* it’s a one way exchange, but I’ve seen it go both ways.
If you lock the counter to an external standard, it really does not matter a lot which OCXO is in it.
