Did your zero key stick ??
If I counted all them zeros correctly I get 1 part in 10e24 ???

Man thats some rock !!

Logging of the 10mhz shows it stays pretty much under 0.05ppb.  The Excel graphs are easy to generate, but not easy to use if that makes sense.  Limited to 32k datapoints per graph and very difficult to zoom in on.
