[time-nuts] T.I. experimenting - newbie question

Oops. I just noticed that I had previously punched the wrong button
and had the wrong frequency out of the Spectracom. Using the loweset
frequency of 100 KHz (as I thought I was using before), the T.I.
readings are much more stable. Using these new numbers gets me even
closer to the measured cable length. If we're measuring from the
center of each tee as suggested, I think I'm dead on.

So, I assume that this particular 5328A is performing as it should in
T.I. mode. I checked it in frequency mode against my GPSDO and it
reads 11 Hz high. In A/B mode, I get the correct ratios.

That's probably enough experimenting for tonight. I'll save some fun
for tomorrow :-)
