Another factor that limits the (apparent) interest is that the 5065B is 
one of the most expensive and hardest to find Rb standards around.  Even 
on the used market the price for a 5065B in good condition can be 
breathtaking.  If Corby's work can be extended to other, more common 
units, the level of interest will explode.  The question, of course, is 
whether the more common units will see any improvement.  Since not all 
5065B units show the same improvement, I won't be holding my breath!  :-)
