Hi Iain,
 
There's probably not too many of these floating about but it's a very  
straightforward circuit and the Motorola ICs are still available on Ebay, albeit 
 probably all recycled, so building one on Veroboard or similar shouldn't 
be  difficult.
 
There's no programmable devices in the interface circuit and the manual  
instructions for retro-fitting are just plug and go so the standard 2100  
firmware must contain what it needs for the GPIB interface.
 
Regards

Hi  Folks,

Having recently acquired two Austron 2100 Timing Receivers  which
did not have the GPIB/HPIB/IEEE-488/whatever you wish to call  it
cards in, I was wondering if any time-nuts had any hanging  around
that they wanted to dispose of ?

If so, let me know off list,  I'm certainly interested in two (esp
as I'm currently hoping cleaning the  switch contacts with
isopropyl alcohol will make them function properly  again)

Having HPIB would get around the problem if the cleansing  fails
and remote command and control would be very useful  anyway


All the  Best

Iain
