Could be. We have tons and tons of 3325Bs and 3325As floating around,
though. I haven't seen any PTS recently, however, a quick check of the
asset database shows a fair number of them "owned" by Rabi Wang and
William Diener. The latter has most of them.. Models PTS040SANIX-7,
PTS250 and X10SAN10 for the most part.
Both of those guys are in the Frequency and Timing Advanced Instrument
Development Group.
A couple years ago, we cleaned out some storage closets FULL of those
gold plated brick shaped modules that made up the Mark III (at least
that's what I was told).
