Dear Claudio,

I use TimeLab using either of, the Prologix is often used. Then I
post-process with Stable32. I find that TimeLab has a good "lab" usage.

I've used to build some tools specific for the HP5372A, but they have
always been very basic or application specific, and is not safe to send
out in the wild.

Cheers,
Magnus
