Hi Bob,
I wonder what the other oscillators that others are receiving look like in
the SA. Replacing all the capacitors would take a serious effort, not sure
if it would be justified.
Can I ask how can you know all that by looking at the spectrum plot?
Thank you,
Roberto EB4EQA

Hi
The spectrum you show in the middle is the correct one. It shows the 10 MHz
output and the sub-harmonics related to the 5 MHz crystal oscillator. The
other two are a bit broken. One appears to have a stage oscillating. The
other is more interesting. It has a stage oscillating that is injection
locked to the 5 MHz crystal oscillator. I suspect more than one capacitor
went bad in these OCXO's. Somebody may have sold Morion a bad reel of bypass
caps.
