Acrually the PPS output has very low impedance, so you can probably load it with 5 instruments, each with 50 termination.
Not so for the 10MHz though Didier KO4BB Sent from my BlackBerry Wireless thingy while I do other things... -----Original Message----- From: "David C.

You need a distribution amplifier.

And a single socket for the 1 PPS? Any need to screen the back of the socket panel, or enclose it in a metal box? Cheers. Oh, I have been running lady Heather for a while tonight, here's a screen capture, does it look OK, ther's suddenly just two traces appeared? Thanks. http://www.chriswilson.tv/heather.png -- Best Regards, Chris Wilson. mailto: [email protected] _______________________________________________ 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. _______________________________________________ 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. _______________________________________________ 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.
