I have measured similar data when the PRS10 is fed a 1PPS from a GPS
without sawtooth correction.

The PRS10 has a 1/256 exponential average filter which can get rid of
most of that noise, and I suspect Tom didn't enable it for that
measurement.

But even with that filter, the "hanging bridges" leak through at all
relevant timeconstants of the PRS10's internal PLL.

I tried converting the "negative saw-tooth" and injecting it into
the PRS10 via the serial port, but the results were at best very
mixed.  In the end I used the PRS10 to timestamp the 1PPS, pulled
the measurement out via the serial port, and implemented my own
neg-saw corrected PLL in software, which injected the correction
back into the PRS10 via the serial port.

When you do that, you get much better results, at 2Hz and elsewhere.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
