I knew something nagged: blowing off dust, I found two of these, non-adjustable. One is at 101.136364 MHz, and the other at 107.864583 MHz. They're 24 volt, pin 2 (cw bottom view) and case pin 6. Other pins open. The interesting thing is that I had bought some really inexpensive AD9850 boards on epay (eg 140776695890, $5.95, free shipping, buy 5 or 6 before the dollar dumps). Looking up the 9850, I found a really nice frequency calculator utility, http://designtools.analog.com/dt/dds/ad9850. and found out either of these oscillators can replace the 125 MHz little osc on the board and give me very useful generators for little cost. I don't have to even mess with the Vectrons to get one part in 10*7 handily with either oscillator, using my fave Robot Basic and a little picaxe or arduino or whatever is around. Can be nicely used for example as the reference osc in a DB mixer setup, etc.Spurs, harmonics, of course, but really handy and the price is right. There are always the little lines going off the drawing "to power supply", but... There are also 9851 blocks, a little more expensive, to give better square wave out, on ebay as well. The fun never ends... Don
