An inexpensive eval board with a synthesizer chip might work for this,
like the Si570. Aligning the IF doesn't require great phase noise
performance. this is probably a <$50 solution.

do the job until I can afford something better. I'm debating what to buy
later,
but it appears most of the older rigs with better specs a
I did some interpolation to compare the specs for phase noise of the 8660 the
way it was done then to the present method. I think it is going to be something
like -105 dBc/Hz to -110 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset at 14 MHz carrier frequency.
As a comparison, the 8662A is about -135 dBc/Hz and the 864

What does the group think of the HP 8660? Just scored a broken one too cheap to

Nathan,
Bob shared a link for the Lucent units and a great amount of detail has
been shared on Time-nuts about them. They will do what you want. The Ref0
requires a external GPS receiver and another Time-Nuts Arduino. It works
really well and the quality of the ref0 seems to be that of the 1pps
fee
Spend reasonable money. Learn, ask questions, rinse and repeat. It's
how a mountain of stuff followed me home. Wife is cool with it.
Electrical fires are a learning experience. Try not to repeat those.

Hello All,
I'm a ham radio operator, for just a few years, and electronics nut for
many
more. I have been reading the archives and trying to learn a bit. I am
wanting
to develop an accurate frequency standard for "lab" and radio use. I see
that I
