    FUNCTIONAL FREQUENCY DESCRIPTION SYNTHESIS The front panel external ALC input goes via the A20 Motherboard PCB to the A10 ALC PCB; the rear panel external ALC input goes by way of the A21-1/ A21-2 PCB and the A20 PCB to the A10 PCB. The rear panel connectors, 10 MHz REF OUT and 10 MHz REF IN, are coupled directly to the A3 Refer- ence Loop PCB via coaxial cables.
