[time-nuts] AC Connector On HP 5061B

[d.seiter at comcast.net]

The cable length issue was a pain for me because I built my GPS box in stages, leaving the dist amp for last.  In the end I found a nice used commercial unit, but it didn't fit in the planned location (the unit I was going to build would have had outputs near the center of the box), so I have 3 nicely routed cables going to the front panel, and the other 5 are ugly coils stuffed above and below the Z3801A for the rear panel.
