To be more specific, I get wild adjustments in frequency when polling at or above the allan intercept setting with current FLL gain settings. Again, I don't know why? I don't understand how the frequency locked loop works verses the phase locked loop -- the differences? > If you are not suffering from wild swings in frequency, you should not > be trying to reduce the measured offsets.
