[time-nuts] 10 MHz Frequency Standard

[J. L. Trantham, M. D.]

LPRO needs to be calibrated.  Once calibrated, should be pretty good for a
reasonable period of time, depending on what your performance criteria are,
probably a year or so for amateur radio type stuff.

Thunderbolt is linked to NIST, via the GPS satellites, and never needs
calibration.

LPRO more of a 'transfer standard', Thunderbolt more of a 'primary
standard'.

Price, probably, slightly cheaper for the LPRO but I prefer the Thunderbolt.
It goes from 'off' to locked to GPS in about 10 minutes or less (not the
first time though) once your antenna is installed and not moving around.

Hello Time-Nutters,

 I would like to get a 10 MHz frequency standard for My Lab, and would like
some information on what would be the best choice and would like to know the
difference from EFRATOM LPRO-101 Rubidium 10MHZ Frequency Standard and
Thunderbolt PRECISION GPS 10mhz FREQUENCY&TIME Standard any help would be
very
much appreciated.
 Thank You,
Sal C. Cornacchia
