To be more precise:

5370A using internal reference - ECL gate oscillator.
Input signal connected to START BNC.
Zin = 50 ohm
START and STOP channels both connected to START BNC.
10,000 samples

Frequency   Amplitude   Source                       +TI jitter -+TI jitter

10MHz         1Vrms      GPS locked OCXO    44ps      24ps

10MHz         0.7Vrms        5370A 10MHz output  14ps    14ps

5MHz            1Vrms         FTS1200                        40ps   41ps

5MHz            0.5Vrms      FTS1200                        57ps   52ps
