I have to say that in general I have been staying clear of this thread.
But its really a surprise that they are that sloppy and basing the results
on a Vectron OCXO. Not that I have ever had a complaint about those.
It just seems like the stunt I would do in the basement on my surplus
accelerator.
Their accelerator _was_ in their basement ;)
Still is as I gather.
Seems like facilities like that should regularly have a connector
tightening party.
What I reacted on was the slope of the signal. Steeper slopes would not
had allowed for such a large effect. Also, the receiving end should have
a signal level detector and possibly some additional quality of the
signal being monitored to ensure that it is correct. Continuous or
flickering detection would then give a hint that there is a problem, and
is in fact what we use to indicate that we need to send out a tech on
the field to polish fibre and tighten connectors.
