Hi The basic fact is that oscillators drift on *all* time scales. How much they drift depends on the type of oscillator. A free running VCO based on a PCB resonator will drift differently than a bare crystal oscillator. An OCXO will have different drift characteristics than a bare oscillator.

Hi time-nuts, I'm doing oscillator-related research for my PhD and found this list recently. It's been a great resource in trying to refine my freq measurement setup and in starting to understand what's really going on inside my lab equipment. I've been trawling the archives and have a question
