Verified Equipment Price List / Sale on Parts in Tubes

October 17, 2024

We have a lot of equipment and parts still to be posted to our site, which is a time consuming process given our limited staff.

Instead of making everyone wait for those items to be listed (although, you are free to do so), you can find a list of our verified equipment here: Price List – Verified Equipment.

This is a list, including prices, of all the equipment we have in stock that has been verified and tested as OK by Walter II prior to his passing.  This means that this equipment received an inspection by him, and has an “OK” sticker (unless otherwise indicated in the price list).

We will continue updating our online inventory with this equipment, but you can get a head start on it now!

We are also discounting all of our Parts in Tubes by 50% – which will end on 31 October, 2024!  These parts will disappear forever after that.

  • TM504, $25, six units in stock
  • TM 503, $20, three units in stock

Be Very Precisely on Time

September 20, 2024

We’ve just listed an Efratom GPS time standard unit from Efratom, which includes the control module, GPS receiver, and onboard correction modules in one convenient rackmount frame.  When set up correctly, this unit effectively replicates the accuracy of a cesium clock.

Very important for those of you that need anything calibrated, or if you just want to be very specifically on time for something.
