Yes it is a reasonable expectation as long as you don't have a lot of drafts. A
good TCXO can get down to sub 0.1 ppb over that period.
This is why I like ADEV plots in datasheets. I rarely get to see them. TDEV
plots is a nice complement naturally.

And I wish there were adev plots for cheap tcxo's on the mgr data sheets
Me too. I have to make the measurement myself. In one case I found that
the oven control in one OCXO was unstable and had a resonance at about 7
second period. It was possible to measure it on the current supply too.
The oven-control was having a relatively high-Q resonance and
self-oscillation around the stability point. It increased the ADEV at
that point to almost about 10 times more than expected. I learned that
it was a good thing I measured it and yes, that spec didn't exist in the
datasheet. It is unclear if they knew it or not. Even my half-crap setup
proved valueable as I got aware of an issue on sample level rather than
out in production phase.
Cheers,
Magnus
