[time-nuts] VC-OCXO EFC stability.

[Daniel Mendes]

I tried something like that once just to discover that the OCXO VFC port 
had low impedance, so my voltage divider didn´t behave very well. So i 
put an amp op in unitary gain configuration between the two and things 
improved a lot. Then I changed the amp op for a DP precision part and 
things improved again. Then I choose resistors/trim pot with low TCR for 
the voltage divider and things improved again. Then I made a good 
layout, termally coupling the resistors.... well, you see this has no end :)
