[time-nuts] Thunderbolt "Oscillator Discipling"

[Steve]

With respect to the two softwares available for the Thunderbolt . . .

The (older I think) Tboltman.exe has a status indicator named 
"Oscillator Discipling" while the (newer I think) TrimbleMon_V1-05-0.exe 
does not.

Does the TrimbleMon_V1-05-0.exe software provide an indication of 
oscillator disciplining?

I'm not familiar with all of the data presented to the user by these 
pieces of software, so maybe the indication I'm curious about is there 
and I don't recognize it?

Thanks.

Steve
