Dear Azelio, Wow! The TimePod is a beauty. I wrote to John Miles regarding payment options and ordering instructions. Not planning to buy one at that price soon, but better be safe than sorry. What a nice piece of equipment. Are all of you guys obtaining your graphical information and Allan

Dear Chuck, Thank you for your advise. Could you please kindly give me an example of such a GPIB counter with phase measurement? HP model number? My 5065a has been running with a beautiful green light for almost 72hrs. Glad to be back home and found it warm and stable. Take care! Regards,

Hi Eduardo -- For longer term measurements (e.g., tau of an hour or more) a very nice and inexpensive counter is the HP 5334A/B. I haven't looked recently, but in the past I bought several off eBay for $150 or less. They are fairly modern, compact (2U high), and don't have a noisy fan.

Re: [time-nuts] HP-5065a bought and finally working!

Dear John, Thank you for such a detailed response. I will certainly look for Ebay opportunities on the models you kindly advised. I had the TAPR unit on my mind for several months but not sure about the way it could behave for these kind of measurements. I see this hobby will last for a long

Re: [time-nuts] HP-5065a bought and finally working!

If it is a really good Rb standard, consider adjusting the standard yourself by measuring the phase over several days once the standard has warmed up and settled down. A GPIB counter with phase measurement is useful for this. -- Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX N2469R c...@omen.com www.omen.com

Re: [time-nuts] HP-5065a bought and finally working!

I think that it is the time for you to look at the TimePod: the TimePod can help you with Allan Deviation and phase noise measurement, the next step after clocks is measuring equipment and the TimePod is a sort of all-in-one for time-nuts, its place is right after the bench yellow multimeter. On

Dear Group, I wish you well. Do you recall a message and thread about a month ago with my concerns about buying a used / unknown condition HP-5065a rubidium frequency standard? I bit the bullet and bought it. Almost mint condition (cosmetically speaking) and with several operational issues.
