LMAO @ the new TP discussion!!!! Thanks for the description of the TBolt buy.
Yes, please add my name to the list of buyers for one of the next batch of T_Bolts. I've been putting off buying one to the Ebay offerings, but this opportunity will push me over the edge. I'll definitely buy one. Power supplies aren't a problem for me... I have a few linears that should work well, or I could build whatever I need. If finding a reliable PSU becomes a problem, I can take the T-Bolt without a PSU.

The price ranged from about 95 to 125. Most were sold with power supply; some without (when the source of cheap switching supplies ran out). For more info see: http://www.leapsecond.com/tbolt-faq.htm http://www.leapsecond.com/pages/tapr-tbolt/ http://www.leapsecond.com/pages/tbolt/noise.htm Yes, there will be another group buy or two. However, this time I'm testing all of them first and then announcing the sale (expect mid-March) so that no one has that long wait between ordering and paying/receiving. So hang on a bit longer and I'll send the details next month. Note a number of people have asked privately (you know who you are) and those requests will be handled first. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
