Jason,

LO is 10 MHz - 1.4V pk-pk coming out into 1 Mohm, but only 150mV into 50
Ohm. DC is +12V, although the pigtail fuse fitted has failed (easy fix!).
Aux output is providing time code, and there is 10 MHz coming out of the
Synth port. Antenna connector is SMA, and others are SMB. Other than that,
not much more I can tell you.

Hi Jason,

I honestly don't know. I've only switched unit on. Will have a quick probe
round and see what the DC output and LO are. If I could find a manual it
would most definitely help.
