[time-nuts] Where to find surplus telecom standards

[Brad Stockdale]

Hello all,

    I'm somewhat new to the list (long time lurker, first time 
poster). I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Brad. I live 
in Pennsylvania. Always been interested in electronics of various 
types (specifically lasers, high voltage, computer interfacing, and 
PIC uC's). Long ago I figured out that for some reason, I have a 
fascination with accurate time. I can't explain it, really, since I'm 
notouriously late and never plan things out, but yet I love to have 
very accurate time... Lol... In any case, back when the market was 
flooded with HP Z3801's, I snatched up four of them, along with some 
mating antenna's. I've ran a couple of them for several years, and 
have used them for my NTP server. I've built a few PIC based clocks 
that utilize my 'house standard' outputs from one of my Z3801's as 
its reference.

    In any case, I am interested in finding some other surplus 
telecom type standards... Specifically, units such as:

	o HP Z3815A
	o HP Z3816A
	o Lucent RFG-RB
	o Lucent RFG-XO

    Where can us time nuts find such units? I'm sure that if I 
watched eBay long enough, I might stumble across them, but thus far, 
I haven't been successful... Even Z3801A's seem to be few and far 
between now... Also, what are reasonable prices for the above type equipment?

    If anyone has any leads on where I should be watching for these, 
please let me know... I'd like to get a few more standards to experiment with.

Thank you,
Brad
