To a large degree it depends on what you want to use it for. HP 5065 is
considered top of the line and PRS 10 is a very nice Rb but lately I have seen
lamp oscillator failures. I like FRK, well documented easy to modify and if
done  right super performance.
As part of a GPSDO project using the FE 5680A that my Swiss friend Juerg and
I have worked on for a year and is now in Beta test is also an alternative. We
are done with FE 5680A so Juerg has his along with a GPSDO for  sale.
If you want a affordable Rb that has GPS control that is an alternative.
Unit has less than 6 month running time so like new.
