An apparatus (200) for receiving a digital terrestrial broadcast television signal in combination with another signal from another source includes a modular housing (400) enclosing a radio frequency tuner (211) for receiving the digital terrestrial broadcast television signals and a consumer premise component (320). The consumer premise component (320) includes an external housing (310) enclosing a tuner (210) to receive the other signal and a modular port (330) to accept the modular housing. The modular housing (340) is disposable in the modular port (330). A diplexer (212) can be externally mounted to the apparatus (200). The diplexer (212) includes an input (147) to accept a combined radio frequency signal that includes the other signal and the digital terrestrial broadcast television signal; a first output (142) to couple to the tuner (210); and a second output (143) to couple to the removable radio frequency tuner (211). The diplexer (212) filters the combined radio frequency signal to select the other signal and couple the other signal to the first output (142) and filters the combined radio frequency signal to select the digital terrestrial broadcast television signal and couple it to the second output (143). The other signals include a cable television signal, a satellite television signal, and / or a high definition satellite television signal. The modular housing includes power connections (431) that are relatively shorter in length than the ground connections (432) so that during removal of the removable radio frequency tuner (340) the power connections (431) decouple from the consumer premise component (320) before the ground connections (432) and during insertion the ground connections (432) make contact before the power connections.

Confocal Scanning Holography Microscope

A confocal scanning holography microscope for use with a suitably selected detector for providing three dimensional information on the state of an object. The microscope has a coherent wavelength source for producing a coherent beam, scanning means for moving said coherent beam in a suitably selected pattern, and means for producing and focusing an object beam and a reference beam to an object focal point and a reference focal point, respectively. The object beam has a transmission path of essentially the same length of a transmission path of the reference beam. The object beam intercepts an object at the object focal point while the reference beam passes by the object. There are also means for defining the object beam and the reference beam based on the position of the object focal point and the geometry of the convergence angles and means for producing an interference pattern between the object focal point and the reference focal point.

Ms/ms mass spectrometer

The length of the collision cell (20) in the direction along the ion optical axis (C) is set to be within the range between 40 and 80 mm, and typically 51 mm, which is remarkably shorter than before. The CID gas is supplied so that it flows in the direction opposite to the ion's traveling direction. Since the energy that an ion receives in colliding with a CID gas increases, it is possible to practically and sufficiently ensure the CID efficiency even though the collision cell (20) is short. In addition, since the passage distance for an ion is short, the passage time is shortened. Accordingly, it is possible to avoid the degradation in the detection sensitivity and the generation of a ghost peak due to the delay of the ion.
