Oh my, you're absolutely right... I've totally missed out those few lines!
Now I understand. I apologize and go immediately to search for a Tbolt. A
similar design is the ConnorWinfield/NavSync FTS125 but instead of
disciplining an OCXO they use a 20MHz fixed OCXO (without EFC) to drive the
GPS
Your work is very interesting, now I wonder what is the Tbolt
single-shot resolution? Does the Tbolt use the analog interpolator
method? I don't have the Tbolt, I have an HP58503A at work as the only
reference.

Are you referring to Kalman filtering/steering? Yes, it depends on how
accurate is the model of the oscillator (and the dimensions of the
Kalman filter) but it can work for several hours not indefinitely.

OK, so the Tbolt hardware resolution is 100pS. If you have a hardware
resolution of 100pS and do an average over the data, yes, you can obtain
greater resolution but your data has

Yes, I recommend switching to a networked GPIB interface. I have long
waited to acquire a used E5810A and at last I succeeded. Of course it
was not so cheap (380$) but very versatile to use. At work I use an

cheap but you can find

Take care that you need the correct line drivers. Before the 82357B,
the E5810A I used an Atmel AT89C55 to develop a GPIB-serial adapter
but only one GPIB device I was able to drive...

I know that few of the GPS constellation satellites carry a Cs clock instead
of the Rb one: is it possible to take advantage from this? I think not
because Cs and Rb satellites are equally well steered but using the masking
options of GPS receivers maybe that Cs clocks can help.

Wow again,
while digging for more info about the MiniBVA I came across this paper from
Enrico Rubiola (and others)
http://www.femto-st.fr/~rubiola/pdf-articles/journal/2010rsi-Elisa.pdf
showing how a cyocooled oscillator can achieve 10E-15 frequency stability at
10GHz from 1s to 1000s.
