When we stick to topic, or at least do quality off-topic it is indeed 
interesting and indeed quite some knowledge available.

As for fixing rubidiums, it takes a bit of time learning the most basic 
tricks, but it is not too hard logic to learn to get a decent result. 
There are those out there that goes deep into their HP5065As.

The trouble is when you don't have enough information on your rubidium, 
then it can be a bit daunting. The traditional analog rubidiums are 
quite similar, so once some experience is there, it's not too hard to 
handle the next.

Starting with a working one is probably a good idea.

I have 23 LPROs, all which have had "issues" so they need fixing. During 
a test-run a handful of them did not lock up. I would be interested in 
working on them so that they work. There are several uses for them.

Cheers,
Magnus
