[time-nuts] HP 5065A questions

Joe,

Nice find.

Don't worry about the lamp, they VERY seldom fail.

Of course there are electronics failures that crop up.

What color is your physics package?

Blue paint= old style
Olive green paint = mid production
Silver (no paint) = late production

Also can I get your units serial number for my list?

With it in the operate mode watch the control voltage and slowly adjust
the fine quartz back and forth.

If it is indeed locking to the Rubidium the meter should follow your
adjustment.

I would not worry about the physics package case either, just put some
tape across to seal it from heat loss.

I can give you some alignment hints if you need them.
