[time-nuts] Messy benches

Don Latham's law of horizontal surfaces states "Any bare horizontal surface immediately becomes covered with junk."   I would offer a more general law:   A N dimensional surface tends to attrack N+1 dimensional objects to the saturation limit. ___ time

Re: [time-nuts] Using a 5202 lock-in amplifier

The 5202 down converts by switching the LO on and off at a rate that is dependent on the input frequency. This on/off rate becomes the IF frequency. It is sort of like fractional N but worse. There is no image rejection. Some mixers and DDS's will clean its clock.   John

  Bob,   Thanks for the information.  Everything else about this counter is perfect so I can live with hitting the run button.   John     The 53132 and 53131 behave oddly when the frequency is dropped. Apparently they do some sort of pre-scaling thing in their firmware. When you drop frequency 10
