99.95 ns is a typical number for the period reading at minimum gate time. Set the gate time to 1 sec. My 5370A shows 99.999 999 9650 +/- 50 at 1 sec gate time.
>From my experience it can take at least a couple of months of continuous >operation for the oscillator in an unused 5370 to stabilize its drift rate. >Once stabilized, the 10544A's in the 5370A seem to be much LESS drifty than >the 10811's in the 5370B.There are three mods that I do to all the 5370s that >cross my path.
