Drewbie,

Can't share any more as its "a proprietary application". :'(

Next time I contact them I'll ask if I can share any details.

A "Golden" 5065A can exceed or match a Passive Hydrogen Maser at Taus of up to 1000Sec!

Cheers,

Corby

I got a "removed from service" EFRATOM 10 MHz rubidium standard from eBay for $80 or so and stuck it in an old 1U rackmount case along with a $20 MeanWell p/s to make my reference standard:





THe rotary switch and panel meter let you monitor the lamp, crystal and LOCK voltages.It takes about 75 seconds to lock from a cold start.

Hm. A worldwide operation based around limited-availability surplus test gear.  :wtf:
Everybody likes gadgets. Until they try to make them.
