Thanks, Bill. They have both specs and the manual on-line; nice of them. The spec sheet says that one 8140 box can drive up to 25 taps, but the 8140 has 4 output lines. The specs also say phase noise is typically <-130dBc/Hz at 1kHz; that's 10dB worse than the spec for the 5061A or 5065A. For my application, that's good enough (I mainly use the taps for a few pieces of gear that won't accept 5MHz input; the good stuff is fed from a 5087A distribution amp at 5MHz).
