Max,
Hi. I was just working on a Fluke 6082A
synthesizer last week, and it has an oscillator
oven that matches your description.
I can look at the manual to see if it has any
useful info. Otherwise I'd have to get the unit
back from the radioastronomy grad students and
open it up to see the connections.
