Were you aware that you can add terms in the search box preceded by a
negative sign to exclude items that match that? ie "cesium -nike"
(without the quotes) should eliminate the multiple shoes listings.
The British spelling adds an A (caesium), so you may want to include that.
Choosing just the HP numbers (5071, 5061) would exclude other
manufacturers like FTS and Oscilloquartz, so perhaps a generic
cesium/cesium is better.
As an aside, and if I may be permitted a small advertisement, I have
an FTS4060/S24 which I would like to sell. I picked it up off ebay a
couple of years ago, and whilst it works, the tube is very near the
end of its life. It really is built like a battleship - very heavy.
If anyone is interested, please contact me off list
