I just picked up a Trimble ThunderBolt GPS frequency standard which I ultimately plan to use for FMTs....provided that I can learn how to do that.
In the meantime, I thought I might as well hitch it up to my 5000 as an external reference source. It appears that the 10mHz output from the Trimble (+12.5dBm) is a little hot for the Flex, which wants to see *<*+10dBm. I've been told that the simplest, cheapest way to tame the Trimble is to insert a splitter in the output, put a 75 ohm terminator on one side and connect the other side to the Flex. Does this sound about right, ye brilliant engineers (of which I am not one)?
