Hi:

Agilent has AN1499 where they make the case that leaving a counter on all the time improves the time base stability by more than an order of magnitude, but the numbers shown on page 3 seem to indicate that it gets worse.  I expect that the numbers are a typo.

They also make the case that the counter should be calibrated in place so that power is not cycled.

Have Fun,
