I am not at all sure that a mid setting on the VCXO is really the right thing
to do.
It's not really the right thing to do. You should trim it to one end so
that further continuous drift makes trimming time longer than putting it
at the mid.
I’ve seen quite a few Rb’s from a number of manufacturers. They all seem to set
up the
sweep process so it sweeps fairly far low but not very far high. There are
multiple
quantum state transitions possible with a Rb. They may be trying to get the
good one
and avoid a near by bad one.
Since the nearby bad ones is evenly distributed around the central good
one, your way of reasoning doesn't really work.
Cheers,
Magnus
