I'll find uses for a full TIC rather than just a fequency counter, but
I absorb all this knowledge happily either way and it's good to have
that here as a reference.

I initially found the 53131A and everything above it to steep for my
first home lab TIC but you are right about the size, they are quite
small. (Having access to 53131's through work.)


As great luck would have it though, I found a second hand Pendulum
CNT-90 and I got a too good deal to hold back my trigger finger.
Picked it up yesterday! Made no measurements past "does it start up
and can it detect any frequency?" yet but will put it to good use soon.

I wouldn't have know what to look for and find this TIC without this
list. A big thanks to all time-nuts once again!
