Two questions.
First, what is the voltage at the 9390 antenna connector with nothing attached
besides your DVM ?
It shows 5V open circuit.
Second, what happens if you just attach the antenna straight to the 9390 ? By

It may need a resistor to ground something that draws 5-10ma. Some GPS rcvrs
need the dc load to believe a antenna is attached.

I thought the 58536A was supposed to provide a load to the other receivers for
that reason. But now that I look at the datasheet more closely, that feature
may only be available for the 58537.

I have a 58536A. Although it isn't mentioned in the datasheet or
manual, mine has a DC load on each input. The load is four 1330 ohm
surface mount resistors in parallel, e.g. 332 ohms or about 15 ma @ 5 volts.

As I mentioned earlier I would have guessed about 300 ohms at 5 V.
Good luck

Hi:
It's pretty easy to connect an Ohm meter to the 58536 when it's not
connected to anything else and measure the load resistance on the output
ports.
In a similar fashion you can connect different value resistors to the
antenna terminals of the GPS receiver to see what values it likes.
So absolutely funny today and this thread.
I now have 8 GPS rcvrs austrons, odetics, HP etc
I just built a sleezy 1 X 8 splitter using Home depot 2.5 Ghz splitters.
Have been doing this for years but with a 4 X.
This issue exactly bit me. I put all the rcvrs online last night. One was

I received my Symmetricom 58536A GPS antenna splitter today (new from
eBay) and did some testing with my Datum 9390-6000, Datum TS2100, and
Thunderbolt. The Thunderbolt and TS2100 work fine with the splitter but
the 9390 has some interesting behavior with the splitter. If the 9390

Robert,
Two questions.

this i mean if voltage is on the antenna connector and while you are observing
