Hi Bert,

Reverting back to the list for more people to see.

Hi Magnus,

No, I don't see why there would be any cycle slips since the readings are 
around 65 ns and both Start and Stop come from the same reference OCXO. Quickly 
browsing through the data does not show any.

You are correct, there isn't any cycle-slips. I just wanted to rule that out.

I have attached the .TIM file in which you will find the raw data. If you can, 
please check for frequency drift as well.

A quick look at the data (using fityk - a nice handy tool) I do see some form of slow sliding effect, with quick retraces. These span about 15 ns of range! Those effects does not look like coming out of the normal noise but rather from some form of systematic property. It also is interesting to note that the jitter seems to be lower for shorter delays. The "quick" restoration slopes has linear shift while the release is a much slower exponential response.

The noise is still substantial.

It would be interesting to see similar plot for a higher rate, such as 1 kHz.

Cheers,
Magnus
