Timing on windows servers is not one of their plausible strengths.
This comes as no surprise, but I wanted some hard fact to assist in

1) have bandwidth sufficient to capture all the sidebands produced
by the FM signal.
2) Have your bandwidth set very narrow, 10Hz or so and tune it directly

Lovely! I'm impressed.
What's the reasons for the offsets? Can't your tool handle negative values?
It would be good to have min, max, max-min, avg, std.dev values without
offsets to help illustrate worst-case behaviour as well as average
performance and noise energy. The more advanced

If you are running a non-RTOS, one test parameter should be a significant
variation in the workload on the server.

Going from what you have here and the information below it would seem to me
that there is some form of residual magnetism effecting the tube. I don't
believe the waveform of the signal has a huge effect as long as its not a

John,
Did you do the Zeeman frequency adjustment before doing the 'degauss'? In
other words, did you 'magnetize' rather than 'de-magnetize'?

John,
yes, I have a scan. It's the one from the Agilent site.
There are just some pages mixed up. Nothing appears to be missing.
The pages are in this sequence: 3-5, 3-6, 3-9, 3-10, 3-7, 3-8, 3-11,
