The guy on the other end calls it a “frequency tamer” and never mentions GPS or OCXO’s. He only talks about the part numbers used in the device. If you are lucky he does it in English. If you want all the possible hits, the words *might* not be next to each other. > > Lots of fun. > > Bob Bob, I think you are making it out to be much more difficult than it is. First you say one has to search every eBay site. When I show that is not true, you now say one needs to search every possible mis spelling of anything of interest. I am sure we could all find lots of GPSDO's. Finding them on eBay is the easy bit. Deciding on which to buy is somewhat harder. Anyway, I might buy a Cs standard for a bit of fun, but I will not buy one with the intention of actually using it as a serious frequency standard.
