A month or two ago I had sketched out a simple distribution amp for my 10 MHz reference. In the meantime I became somewhat disillusioned about my FE-5680a standards. So I removed the FE-5680a and disconnected its power supply from the box that holds the Thunderbolt, power supply, and big line filter.
I decided to try daisy-chaining the Thunderbolt's 10 MHz output. I have plenty of hardware left over from the days of 10BaseT networking. So I have the Thunderbolt going to a BNC T on the back of my FlexRadio 1500, hence to my Advantest U3641 spectrum analyzer, and finally to the external reference on my Racal-Dana 1992 nanosecond universal counter. That end has a 50 ohm termination on the other side of its T connector. All three devices seem happy with the 10 MHz they are receiving. -- Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX N2469R c...@omen.com www.omen.com Developer of Industrial ZMODEM(Tm) for Embedded Applications Omen Technology Inc "The High Reliability Software" 10255 NW Old Cornelius Pass Portland OR 97231 503-614-0430 _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
