Hi

Did I miss part of the data?

The plot I got shows about 9 minutes. Temperature step stress takes a *long* 
time to settle out.

I too felt the data was short. For relative mediocre oscillators I at least measure an hour. For quality rocks, that's just a "get a feel" measure.

Looking at the frequency plot, you can almost see the frequency going down, where as for most part the frequency is rising, and the ADEV plot shows a tau linear rise as you would expect form such a linear drift. However, as you would measure longer the OCXO oven loop would hunt in (unless you run outside of the control range) and frequency would return towards normal. The ADEV plot would settle back. ADEV isn't a good measure for such transient behaviours, which really isn't noise but systematic effects.

Cheers,
Magnus
