Roy, I have found a manual for the 425 SatSync, which was the later 2U version of the 325. It may have what you need to get you going. Will send to you directly.
As a quick check - see what you have on the antenna connector when unit powered up. Check DC voltage coming out - will probably be +12VDC. Also if a 10 MHz sine coming out also then the antenna will be the down converting type (which are a bit hard to find, although I believe that the Meinberg GPS-ANT www.meinberg.de/english will do the job). If nothing coming out - check for a fuse in-line with the antenna connector. More later.

There is a warning label adjacent to the antenna connector stating that damage may occur if an antenna is connected, or disconnected when the instrument is powered up ? Also what is the access route though the system to clear the "lock-up" ? Looking forward to any information you may be able to offer. regards Roy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rob Kimberley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement'" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, February 10, 2008 11:20 AM Subject: Re: [time-nuts] Odetics 325 - 865 > Hi Roy, > > I used to work for Odetics/Zyfer and have a number of manuals on file. > Will > take a look and get back to you. > > Rob Kimberley (in Nuneaton) > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Roy Phillips > Sent: 10 February 2008 09:52 > To: Time Nuts > Subject: [time-nuts] Odetics 325 - 865 > > Gentlemen > > Pleased to join you - I major in "high-end" test equipment, and have > recently added a couple of Watkins-Johnson Rx's -- Dual 8607 (20 - 2032 > MHZ) > ,and a WJ 8700 again dual LF/HF (to 32 MHZ).
