[time-nuts] HP 106B on Ebay

[Taka Kamiya]

I saw this one.
What scares me is that the seller appears to be competent in testing his frequency counter, oscilloscope plugin, and other equipment, but on this one he says, "not sure how to operate".  My alarm went off and I didn't bid.

 Hi

I’m guessing that it is a dewar based OCXO. If so, the *big* question is: Can the boys at UPS / Fed Ex / DHL / USPS (your pick) get it to you
without cracking the glass bottle? I’ve had reasonable success at shipping them ( = dewar based OCXO’s not HP106’s)  in, but not 100%
success. Replacing dewars is generally not an easy task.
