[time-nuts] John Fluke test equipment tutorial

[ew]

Looking through piles of manuals I found proceedings of frequency and time and frequency meetings I attended as part of my job, between 75 and 79. Each at least an inch thick. Is some one archiving the proceedings. Like them to find a home. Contact me off list

Azelio really just looking at what methods were used back then. That helps

have seen some very nice Gen Rad equipment at bargain prices. Unfortunately
I already had the same Z bridge. But it was a really tempting price and
unit was in mint condition.
But there are many bridges and dividers that show up at $20 or less.
So they just add to the test bench.

Paul.
