[time-nuts] HP 5370A to B conversion

There is a mod on the A model which was fixed in the B version.

As I recall, it was to reduce cross-talk. Bruce the almighty might 
recall better than me.

I would recommend Perry to apply the BBB based CPU-boards. Good use of 
the hardware at hand.

Cheers,
Magnus
