Don't know if the manuals are available on the web, but Stanford Research Systems (http://www.srsys.com) includes schematics with all their engineering products, and that would include the SR620 Time Interval Counter, which has a TXCO option. You might get some ideas from them ... -- ______________________________________ Andrew E.
