[time-nuts] OP-Amps for 10MHz distribution...?

Hi

It's always a "that depends" sort of thing. If you are after total
perfection, then indeed any phase shift is suspect. That includes the shift
from the delay in the op amp.

Transformers are handy for providing isolation.

How significant are the phase shifts through a transformer relative to other

sources of trouble?

How much trouble do ground loops cause?
