Good evening Don-
I believe FEI made the USO's for Voyager1, 2, and others:

More recently, APL has also been supplying USOs.
Quartz, in a vacuum bottle for thermal isolation. Lots of blanks started
Twitter has tracking posts for both the DSN and the Voyagers themselves.
there is a phase for every operation with the voyagers as Jim describes,
followed by data transfer (for instance lately 159b/s)
DSS 14 carrier lock on Voyager 1
Frequency: 8.4199GHz
Signal strength: -156dBm

Hi
The Voyger probes are very complex setups. There are a *lot* of frequency
references
in them. The “on the ground” rover happens to have used a Vectron TCXO ….

The ultra stable oscillators USOs are crystals
Can any group member describe the onboard frequency reference[s] used in
the Voyager space probes? They have done extremely well over the decades -
are they Cesium?, Rubidium?, Quartz?

The first Motorola Oncore Remote antenna I bought has failed after some
20 years of continuous service in Danish climate:
