[time-nuts] Is this a cesium frequency standard?

[paul swed]

I am reading thread and getting a good chuckle in a lot of respects.
SRS good or bad humps and bumps.
Then it hit me. I have a HP5065a and its great.
But, someone here is willing to buy it for $5000!
I think we can strike a deal. :-) Its american, has documentation, and is
HP. Sweet!
