I pay pretty close attention to what people in this field are saying,
and I've never heard anyone say "we'll get to 1e-11 short term
stability at 1 second real soon now."
1e-11 at 1 second is the XPRO spec (and 2X better than LPRO or
PRS10). There are good (physics) reasons why those units all draw
100X more power than a CSAC.
CSAC is intended for portable battery-powered operation. Surely your
basement has the space and wallplug power to support an LPRO. (p.s.
don't cool the damn thing, heat it).
The cats were much happier during the CsIII development (see
http://home.comcast.net/~rlutwak). It was bigger and warmer. Any
Cat-Nuts out there who can help me find one with significantly lower SWAP?
