[Elecraft] 10 Mhz Reference Oscillator

[Edward R. Cole]

Currently there are 34 listings on e-bay for Oven Controlled Xtal 
Oscillators ranging from $14.99 to $359.  But the majority of them 
run about $45.  I found this with a search for OCXO 10 MHz.

This where I bought my OCXO ($39.95).  +/- 5xE-12  (.000005ppm)

Most run on 12vdc and output +10 dBm (10mw), perfect to supply the 
K3EXREF.  Some require 24v.  Many of the e-bay suppliers are free shipping.

Presently it seems that the Trimble Thunderbolt is the only 
reasonably priced reference oscillator available.  When ordering one 
of these you are taking a chance as they are refurbished and shipped 
from China.  Some of these units are better than others depending on 
serial number.  Again, you are taking a chance with what is shipped to you.
Since the K3EXREF is being offered, a logical next step would be to 
produce an external reference oscillator.   I hope Elecraft is 
developing one.  Is this wishful thinking?  Roy Morris  W4WFB
