Once I get my OSA 8607 back I plan on mounting it along with a FRK/M100 RB in a HP chassis. Attached a picture of a vibration mount for the OSA. Very soft. Can not be used for the Rb because of weight but also vibration mounted. The Rb is fan cooled with a Sunon MagLev 80X80x15 30db(A) mounted with rubber mounts that where sold at one time for hard disk drives. I can not feel or hear any thing on the housing. I turned in to a frequency nut while living in Miami so when I moved to Palm City that included massive downsizing the lab down to 9 by 20 feet, my work bench with all instruments except frequency take up 240X31 inches. The frequency instruments are in a short 19 inch rack on the opposite side. Home is on a concrete slab and walls are concrete block Miami code. In the corner a half size Sears bench with a half height 19 inch rack. The unit will be placed on top which will be eye level. Right now there is soft foam with a metal plate will be replaced with 1 inch 18X18 marble. Will experiment with soft foam versus bubble pack. My biggest problem is the HP54132A, I have one on each side. To much vibration. That is why I bought a FA2. My HP5065A which has super AV rests on a shelf mounted on the outside wall since it is not part of my long term plan but is needed during testing of the Rb/OSA. The limited space forces me to make decisions.
