You're looking at the Thunderbolt trace, I'm guessing... I'm only getting -117 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz out of the Datum, -142 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz out of the Thunderbolt. > My understanding is that the compact telecom Rbs put FM on the reference > as part of the lock mechanism; that makes the phase noise fairly ugly. Hmm, yeah, that would do it! Can anyone else measure the PN of one of these? TVB, do you have anything with an FRS-C in it? -- john _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
