I think it starts with 22 Corby will be able to tell you tomorrow. But do
not forget even earlier models will benefit with a work around of A3. Its
all in the RVFR.

On a related note does any one know the likely serial number ranges of the
HP5065's that would benefit from this treatment ? (Or is there any
other easy way to tell the units appart ?)

Thanks to all concerned for the effort put forwards on this project. It
may sway me towards actually buying an HP5065 at some point in the
future. The efforts are appreciated.

Another factor that limits the (apparent) interest is that the 5065B is
one of the most expensive and hardest to find Rb standards around. Even
on the used market the price for a 5065B in good condition can be
breathtaking. If Corby's work can be extended to other, more common
units, the level of interest will explode. The question, of course, is
whether the more common units will see any improvement. Since not all
5065B units show the same improvement, I won't be holding my breath! :-)

microwave part clearly outlines its contribution to performance.
Right now
we are doing it off list since there seems not to be much interest in
having H Maser like performance at home.

There is at least from me, and I know others reads with interest.
Remember that many remains silent on the list even if they read it
with interest, so number of replies does not reflect interest.

Cheers,
