Jason, just to add to the chorus, I have both an -Rb and -XO unit coming, so I'm anxious for any documentation you can find. Thanks, and happy holidays!

I was able to get a pinout of the Interface cable between the two units from Charles Osborne. I think I posted already, but if you need it again just let me know.

But what do you have that outputs 10 MHZ that would be better than the Rb to discipline the Rb? Maybe I got this all wrong, but I thought the idea was you would put in a 1PPS to the Rb and get a really clean 10 MHz out?

What little I have been able to dig up suggests that there were

I have found mention of L102, L104,  L105A, L105B and L109 Rubidiums

And L106A and L106B GPS XO units.

There also seems to be a RFTG-II-M-XX setup (the L109) in addition

Also some were supplied by Datum and some by Frequency Sources and

I suspect that each different model is significantly different

What little I have been able to dig up suggests that there were several models of the KS24019 CDMA timing components. I have found mention of L102, L104, L105A, L105B and L109 Rubidiums And L106A and L106B GPS XO units. There also seems to be a RFTG-II-M-XX setup (the L109) in addition to the vanilla RFTF-M-XX. Also some were supplied by Datum and some by Frequency Sources and maybe others. The Datum deal is mentioned in 10Q statements around 1998. I suspect that each different model is significantly different internally but presumably they all have more or less the same interfaces with the world. -- Dave Emery N1PRE, die@dieconsulting.com DIE Consulting, Weston, Mass 02493 "An empty zombie mind with a forlorn barely readable weatherbeaten 'For Rent' sign still vainly flapping outside on the weed encrusted pole - in celebration of what could have been, but wasn't and is not to be now either."
