Not so Murray, it really does need one, similar to the FEI.

Very true.

I just got 6 Datum LPRO-101s for a particular application that needs 10 
MHz only and they seem very user friendly with a lot of good interfacing 
information in the manual.  They need a single 19 to 24 Volt supply 
which is line with a lot of time nut stuff.  Stability etc., seems about 
equivalent to that of the FEI unit I tried, but it has a simple C-Field 
adjustment.

They can be had in the US for less than $40 plus shipping.
