Blogger swaps Noctua fan into Calnex GPS frequency reference

Original: Noctua Fan Swap on a Calnex Rb/GPS Frequency Reference

Jeff Geerling has written about replacing the stock fan in a Calnex rubidium/GPS frequency reference with a quieter Noctua fan. The guide covers keeping precision timing equipment cool and stable while cutting noise, a familiar theme from his hardware tutorials. Readers are discussing the mod and whether aftermarket fans can safely be used in lab-grade timing gear.

Why now: Geerling's hardware modding posts regularly draw attention from the tech and homelab community, especially quieter-cooling upgrades for always-on equipment.
