Hey, all. PCI is still looking for a metrologist for our ISO accredited lab in Raleigh. We just had one person walk out unexpectedly, so the need is immediate. Our scope is available at www.pci-llc.com. We're a small lab so you won't be stuck doing the same equipment over and over. Also, Raleigh is a great place to live and work. Contact me if you are interested and we can go over the details.

Is there a difference? Do they use different T.O.'s? I imagine they use the same tech orders and equipment as before and most likely service the same equipment with maybe a few differences namely frequency range... I imagine Space force may go up to the 67 GHz range as opposed to the standard 18/26.5/40/50 GHz most other places use.

Hello all!

I have been told this pub was never digitized and all paper copies have disappeared. Does anyone have a copy or know where to get one? This is basically my last ditch effort before conceding that they are correct.

I am looking for NA 17-35POP-01B (metrology and calibration program operations process manual).

Thanks for the help! Kind Regards!

Anybody have experience in calibration for 906-10247-3 loop resistance tester?
If I don't have cal std for 906-10247-3, how I calibrate it?
I have used some low resistance shunt, but I couldn't get right result at 10 milliohm.
I think the contact resistance value affects to result, I don't know how I remove it.
Plz help me.
