Once locked I did notice something interesting but maybe not important. The control voltage to the oscillator (timing > util > tfp 0) went from a very consistent 0xba6f to a 0xbb02. That's about 0.2% of scale. I'll watch it over the next few days to see where it settles in.
Sounds like oscillator aging to me, sometimes they do larger jumps, stay there for a while and then again... Also it would not be suprising that this would happen just after the power was off and oven was cooled down for a moment.
Also, brand new oscillators seem to age more rapidly at start and then settles down when older but the effects of aging will never stop completely. But they seem to get better and better when aging.
I'm also waiting my MTI OCXO to arrive... -- 73s! Esa OH4KJU _______________________________________________ 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.
