The cleanliness of that plot of the 2024 surprises me. I've been using 2024s for some receiver testing over the past few years and had to change to HP8662s because of noise floor. The 2024 does do rather well for control of its frac-N noise pedestal.

A large number of Marconi 2024s hit the surplus market, all with the ovened freq standard, the high output level option and the fast pulse modulator. They were real bargains!
