[time-nuts] Advice on Austron 1250A

[Dave M]

Hi Paul,
No, I'm not at the MIT flea market... wish I were able to make a few of 
those meets.  I understand lots of fine equipment changes hands there. I'm 
at the annual hamfest in Huntsville, Al this weekend.

 And thanks for the others who offered good advice.  I think I'll buy the 
unit and make it part of my bench.  I have a couple extra HP 10544 
oscillators (salvaged from trashed HP 5238A counters). and a 10811 that's 
taking up space on the shelf.   I was thinking about putting them on Ebay, 
but now I think I'll hang onto them until I'm comfortable with the 1250A 
unit. I might dream up some kind of hookup to put them all to use.

Thanks for all the advice and info...
Dave M
