Hi Bob:

The DC supply in the HP 4352 VCO test set is very special in that it's output 
voltage has extremely low noise.
Another option is to use a battery(s) for the control voltage.

Hi

Be careful when you do find the data.

When you go very close in on something like a VCO, you get much higher phase 
noise
than we normally worry about. Some of the “assumptions” that underly the 
measurements
are no longer true. Small angle of modulation is one, but there are a few 
others. A simple
“plug it in and read it” may not give you valid information without some 
corrections.  Coming
up with a supply that’s good enough (at 1 Hz) would be a major challenge ...

Just to give you a start-sample.

those seemed to be all PLL outputs.. I didn't see the bare VCO data.

And, I'm really interested in the 1 Hz to 100 Hz kind of range.
