I ran efc_comp and the efc table is slowly filling!

Ed, et al,
I was just cleaning up the workbench and this gave me time to reflect of the
FRK repair.
I'd just like to say thanks for your help and Guidance Ed, without it, I
probably would have got there in the end but I would have not been as aware of
why and how I fixed it.

Theory behind Ytterbium-based optical lattice clocks have been mentioned
on this list before[1] but these results were new so I thought I'd share
them.
NIST released a paper[2] (link to PDF[3] on the right side on arxiv) a
week ago on results from two optical lattice clocks[4] with impressive
Just remember a lot of the Ytterbium comes from Australia, Jay ;)
According to Wikipedia, The optical clock based on it is exact to 17 digits
after the decimal point!
I hope that doesn't mean it is time to trade my HP 5370B in shortly...
How do they measure down to these resolutions?
A retraction, it was not necessary to run efc_comp to get the table to fill.
I know because one of the banana plugs that doesn't fit properly,
that was going from the bench supply to the Z3815A fell out today during bench
clean-up.
Alas, the efc table was empty on restart.
However, no

Hi Ed, Just an update, I replaced the Triac (a 2N6343, no less) with a garden
variety I had in my spares.
I checked most of the active and passive components and it all checked out.
I mean this is one simple PSU - using a 555 timer as oscillator...
Anyway, with bated breath I plugged it in.

Short answer: instead of a few GHz (Cs clock or H-maser), go to 500 THz or
Hi Chuck:
The Western Union Self Winding Clock Co. clocks that were used in radio stations had second hands, unlike the prior
clocks that were used in banks, railroad stations, etc. that only had hour and minute hands.
See figures 4 and 6 at the top of the page:

Also correct, but a bit of a joke answer:

So, it's been sitting there for a couple of hours before the Lock LED came
on.
Interestingly enough, I woke up (its 3am here) and I thought, Hmm wonder if
its locked.
I walked down stairs to the workshop and looked at the front
Oh No, it stayed locked, I sat there until 4:30am watching it..
But it's still drifting +/- 2 Hz 8 hours later which annoys me so much!
I will take a page from Ed's book and exercise patience, I guess.
Not much else I can do without disturbing its natural course.
