I'm curious what kind of TIC they use? Classics like SRS SR620 or newer like the keysight 53230A? I have two SR620 and a 53220A I use regularly. Must be nice to have access to Masers. I have an HP5071A cesium and an HP 5061B cesium at home. Bill On Wednesday, October 6, 2021 at 9:19:22 AM

Bill, I went a ways down that rabbit hole in 2006, ending up with a rubidium Nixie clock. Then it subsided. These days I can get all the time nut energy needed at my day job. We run portions of the Event Horizon Telescope, which requires picosecond correlation accuracy over several continents.

nixiebunny watch out! Once bit by the timenut bug you might be surprised where it leads: For me initially some nice OCXO's, then DOCXO, then Cesium and Rubidium oscillators and frequency standards... oh and then you better have a better counter to measure it all... hopefully with 10's of ps

Sometimes I hate seeing all of these auctions with tubes ripped out of vintage test gear. As some of you know I collect vintage test gear with nixie tubes in them. I have many frequency counters, multimeters, clocks (obviously), and even some CNC display with massive amount of nixie tubes in

I have another counter with 8 of these B-5560 nixie! It's called a Systron Donner 7018. I'll post a picture in a minute. Bill On Wednesday, September 29, 2021 at 6:13:04 AM UTC-7 Tomislav Kordaso wrote: > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8hLqpigv1g > Electronic counter by HP at about 9:05

I checked some of the old Burroughs documentation and I cannot find an "e" either. They only seemed to use the alternate font to spell "Burroughs Corporation". I have a PDF scan of catalog 616 (available on the Internet and it has no other examples. Then for fun, I made an image of the logo

@Terry Bowman: Please send me a direct email and explain in more detail what you are looking for so I can have a look at my Burroughs material to see if I can find what you are looking for. /Martin On Wednesday, 6 October 2021 at 00:16:32 UTC+2 Terry Bowman wrote: > The "Burroughs 70910"

Thanks for the extra photos, seems like they had a lot of those boxes for the Beam Switching tubes and re-used one here! /Martin On Tuesday, 5 October 2021 at 19:51:01 UTC+2 Jeffry P wrote: > [image: PXL_20211005_163123203.jpg] > [image: PXL_20211005_163136426.jpg] > > On Sun, Oct 3, 2021 at
