Sorry, I really don't think you get it.  If the box you were using was
just doing a digital capture, without attempting a DAC, then jitter is
irrelevant.  It matters not a bit (sorry!) if the timing wanders all
over the place, because the bits will all arrive eventually, in the
right order.  Jitter becomes a problem at the point where the bitstream
is converted to analog, and your experiment doesn't include that stage,
AFAICT.

And the assertion that any receiver or preamp should be capable of
locking on to the SB's output stream "jitter-free" is, to say the
least, highly contentious.

Your experiment is rather like one which is looking for the presence of
a blue colour in some chemical reaction, by taking photos with a
black-and-white camera...

IMHO.
