[time-nuts] Thunderbolt setup

[aartmolsen at comcast.net]

I'll vouch for the Thunderbolt "Standard Easy Kit" from Fluke.L (Bob Mokia) on ebay. The one I bought a month ago contained a new-in-a-box Tbolt (manufactured in 2004, with the Trimble OXCO and the higher resolution DS1620 thermometer (read the Time Nuts archives about the Tbolt variants); firmware is 3.00), a Meanwell 30W power supply which is plenty good enough until you find something better (not so easy but it you do, this one can become a useful general purpose PS), an antenna that, for me, provides excellent signal strengths consistently in the 45-50dBc range. Shipping took about 10 days. Communication from the seller has been useful and friendly, although his English isn't perfect so don't expect detailed correspondence. Highly recommended.

After some consideration and the acquisition of a 5370 and a couple MRT Rb sources I've decided that I should get serious and get a Time-Nuts starter reference. So what help can the group offer on navigating the Thunderbolt offerings out there? Any pit falls to watch for ? 

All comments are appreciated!
