I am new to the time list and a novice at disciplined oscillators. I will be
starting the Shera disciplined oscillator project soon. I would love to hear
from each and every one of you as I get started in this endeavor. I prefer
to make a stand alone unit, rather than disciplining my HP5328A.

There are some things that I already have that may help:
* HP-5328A counter w/10811D (10811-60120) oscillator. Works good, but pretty
old & worn.
* Ovenaire 84-14 10 Mhz oscillator
* Quintron Corporation Master Oscillator w/Ovenaire 74-14-1 5.0 Mhz
oscillator installed. I think this is a disciplined oscillator but I do not
know how to hook it up, or what to hook it up to. It puts out a 5.0 Mhz
signal.
* Good junk box and lots of tools and test equipment, and many years of
experience as an electronic technician and ham operator.

Things I am looking for
* HP Z3801 or Z3816
* Data sheet or any other information for the Ovenaire oscillators, pinout,
voltages, etc.
* HP 10811 that is working
* Any help or comments from the people on the list about what to do, what
not to do, hints, kinks, etc.

Thanks
