[time-nuts] HP 5370B using manual start-stop

[Bob kb8tq]

Hi

We ran 5335’s in “long gate” mode via the gate open / gate close commands. It worked, but you had to 
compensate for rollovers. My guess is that you would run into similar stuff on the 5370A. Simple answer
is to try it and see … That’s what we did on the 5335 and then worked through all the issues we found.
