Bonjour Loïc,
I am very happy with the 53131 and 53132 that I have (the latter
have 150ps resolution, as opposed to the 500ps resolution of the
'131). As well as a GPIB port, they also have a simple D9 serial port,
and can very easily be configured to output each reading down the
serial port, for easy viewing using something like Hyperterm (in
Windows), and subsequent capture to file for later analysis. Expect
to pay up to €1000 for these. They do, however, have a small fan that
runs all the time. This can be slightly irritating in a quiet home
environment, but is lost in the noise of the air-conditioning at work
:-)
Regards,
Peter (London, England)

In order to compare different frequency sources i am in the process to
acquire old Agilent gear, i am looking to different directions 5350A
counter or more modern 53131A the prices are nearly equals and I prefer more
recent equipment so I somebody can give me an advice to look further on 5350A
it will be appreciated.
The 225 Mhz frequency limit of the 53131 is not a problem as some equipment
are equipped with a 3 Ghz option and it will be possible to construct/buy a
prescaler.
regards
Loïc
