Re: [time-nuts] OT Question - Surplus Places

Ignacio I do not know. But those ovens actually started me in the world of frequency references. I found one at a computerfest many years ago 1992 for 50 cents. I discovered they were used in the HP5360 (I now have 4 of those working)and HP5248m as I recall. I think they were used in other equipment also.

In the late 60's I designed a thick-film phase detector that was used in an ASW system, where I simply matched the hot carrier HP diodes for a fixed voltage drop at a given current. We also wound the toroids, and had an op-amp on the output. Wow, that was ages ago. Regards - Mike Mike B.

[time-nuts] Surplus Places...
In the Southern, California - Los Angeles area, we have a place called Apex Electronics. Some of the prices in the past have been outrageous, but now seem to becoming more reasonable. Right now there seems to be a ton of NTSC TV stuffs coming in the doors. I think you could spend days foraging around at Apex.

Re: [time-nuts] Surplus Places...
I spotted this place a couple years ago. Noted it but have not been back to LA with time to get to the place. It indeed looks like a great place for the things I tend to be interested in. Though good to here the $ may be more reasonable. In Santa Clara some of the places want gold for true junk. On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 3:24 PM, Burt I.

Apex was in Sun Valley. They were there in 1979 and had lots of aerospace telemetry stuff there. I bought an Omega receiver and carried it to Boston as baggage. Those were the days.

This I can't resist! In about 1963, I was at Eli Heffron's in Cambridge. The old man, Eli was still alive. Anyway, they had won a big lot for many kilobucks from IBM near NYC. I was there when they unloaded. They were all hot about the money they were going to make form all the memory cores they had gotten. Core memory was highly sought after in those days! At first, they thought they'd been cheated by IBM, then I found a small carton with lots of little plastic bottles of loose memory cores.I've probably still got a bottle around someplace.

Re: [time-nuts] Surplus Places...
Well, there are more reasons for astounding prices. For example, Ebay was a good place to get stuff, until it changed from a marketplace to a virtual storefront. A bunch of buy it now's does not establish a marketplace where prices can be determined. So the BIN's have prices that seem outrageous. Personally, I think some of the older instruments, although nice, are becoming obsolete. See QEX for some examples. For $300-500 a universal front end, called a PC, can serve a bunch of instruments, and do a lot of other things as well. I've seen, but haven't built, soundcard driven instruments such as oscilloscopes, impedance measurers (is that a word?) and a lot more. Flexible software is easy to generate, and displays can get as fancy as needed. Calibration and holding calibration seems the biggest problem. IMHO, older instruments built around microprocessors have digitally driven parts such as attenuators, frequency sources,etc that might be adapted to PC's through USB adapters. Anyone done that? Just an idle thought, but is there a group somewhere in netspace where this kind of info is collected? Pardon the sort of mind fart...
