However it does discipline the DDS outputs as intended.
It is somewhat akin to Ulrich's approach perhaps without the robust
outlier rejection.
This approach would allow a wide range of relatively stable low noise
sources to be used including those that may have drifted out of
adjustment range.
One drawback for some applications is the relatively high phase noise floor.
