[time-nuts] B.V.A. 8600 for sale

[Mann Weltzeit]

yes you are missing something

-> its the BVA holder that creates the Allen Deviation magic

but I admit, it starts with a Quartz, yes
(most of the CBTube based masers still steer a 8663...Quartz)

these 8600-06 from 2003, 
just about the same time as the datasheet you referenced were about 14K CHf 

I recover ~ 4 per year from 5548B and from F3 and so on
and of these , some are trash and saved for parts

I have the experience to know which are 100%
and I offer satisfaction with my price; the object must meet the standard ADEV limit in OSA specification
or it should not be out there  (and I need them for parts)

in confidence
Manny

Am I missing something, or is $3000 more than a little excessive for
what a quick Google would suggest is an OCXO?

OK, they are good OCXOs, but still an OCXO.

Maybe I am missing something.
