	I have the whole working PRR-10 system including 2 Rbs and AFAIK
that PCB just contains redundant power and provisions for passing a
couple of status bits from the RB (lock I think)... if you have a PRR-10
system it would be useful, but I'm not sure it is otherwise.

	Possible there is a -48 volt input DC to DC converter... if it
would be useful I go go look at one of mine to refresh my memory.

	The heat sink is useful with the LPRO RB of course.

	I assume you bought it for the LPRO...

	You may not be aware, but the system is designed to use a DDS to
offset the frequency of a free running 10 MHz source to make it accurate
based on GPS timing ... so the Rb is not disciplined with its C field or
similar - it is free running.
