[time-nuts] Would this work as a frequency standard? Would it damage the Stanford Research function generator?

If the SRS stores the CALBYTES info in EEPROM,  continuously updating it will wear out the EEPROM in a relatively short time.    

There were some proposals about interfacing the freq adjust up/down buttons in the FEI Rb modules to steer the device...  I calculated that the EEPROM would be toast in a couple of weeks.  The EEPROMs are rated for 10,000 to 100,000 write cycles (but can usually last a few million writes)
