Looking at e-pay (nobody here seems to refer to it by it´s name... don´t 
know why.. any relationship to Sauron?)  I found several items from HP 
named "samplers", like:

Seems that under this name there´s 2 type of devices: RF Samplers, that 
are simple RF power dividers, and high speed sample-and-hold circuits. 
I´m trying to find these, and derive a way to make them work work again.

All the work I did up to now seems to indicate that these are the sample 
and hold units:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Agilent-5086-7961-Sampler-50GHz-/120789801136
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-Agilent-5086-7699-Sampler-/281062317963?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item41709e9f8b
http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-Agilent-5086-7614-SAMPLER-ASSEMBLY-/271153098534?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f21fbef26

The problem is how to find a way to put them back to work. No datasheet 
seems to be available, and the equipments where they came from don´t 
seem to have schematics availabre either. Any ideas?

Daniel
