Out of pure interest. Could you elaborate what results you got?
Ie. what does your GPSDO look like? How do you compensate for the
temperature coefficient? How much did that improve performance
compared to non-compensated operation? Did you try any other approaches?
Why? Why not?
Yes, i'm a curious mind :-)
Thanks in advance

them all out and never look at the bleeding body mangled beneath the heap
