[time-nuts] CTS oscillator info?

I just bought an oscillator on ebay. Here's the basic description from 
the listing,
"This is an auction for one CTS Knights 970-2162-0 (WP 93216-L1) 5MHz 
OCXO oscillator."

It is a double oven and actually has a frequency of 5.000055 MHz on the 
label, so 55 Hz above
5 MHz. I'm hoping it is a very clean source and will be good for beating 
against other 5 MHz
sources to measure them, but I haven't found any more info on this one 
with searches.

Does anyone on the list have any guess what it might have been used 
with? I'm guessing it may be
for some piece of measurement test equipment. Or does anyone have a lead 
on specs for the
quality of its output signal?

The auction was 130297655960, if anyone wants to look at the pictures.

thanks,
Rex
