My reason for asking this is that given I have nothing to make a phase
noise measurement with, but are likely to have two oscillators, both old
and of unknown condition. It would be useful if I could determine that
neither of the two are seriously flawed.
And yes, I am well aware a noiseless oscillator does not exist.
