Here is a PIX of various Rubidium lamps. >From the left top, Tracor EG&G LPRO 5065A R20 FRS PRS10 bottom two are FRK I'll see if Tom Van Baak will add them to his site also

this would be even better with some arrows showing where to put the heat to heal the lamp!

Should be easy enough for you to figure out. The idea is to evaporate any rubidium that is blocking the light from leaving the bulb and making a straight path to the filter cell, and ultimately the detector end of the package. Look at the bulb on the side where the light must exit, and if it is shiny and black, heat it there until it clears. -Chuck Harris Don Latham wrote: > this would be even better with some arrows showing where to put the heat > to heal the lamp! > Don > > cdelect@juno.com >> >> >> >> Here is a PIX of various Rubidium lamps. >> >> >From the left top, >> >> Tracor EG&G LPRO 5065A R20 FRS PRS10 >> >> bottom two are FRK >> >> I'll see if Tom Van Baak will add them to his site >> also_______________________________________________ >> time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com >> To unsubscribe, go to >> https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts >> and follow the instructions there. > >

Chuck hit the nail on the head. Thats what I have done and it restores the bulbs nicely. I have seen both the darkened area and actually a silver-ish glob that when heat moved around and finally evaporated.

Hey, thanks, Chuck. I think I have a couple of candidates. Soon as I get some time. . . Don Chuck Harris > Should be easy enough for you to figure out.
