It's a digital signal, not a sine wave. For a TBolt, it's 10 microseconds wide. > I use an HP 5328A with the OCXO and wonder how I can improve its accuracy. You can't feed it into the ext-osc input, but you can check the calibration by measuring the time between pulses. If the measured time is longer than a second, your internal clock is running slow. -- These are my opinions.
