OK Ken, but please define "stable".
50 Hz in 15 minutes is surely not too bad, is it?
And if I understood the original post correctly, after 15 minutes warmup things are OK.

Is there a spec on stability requirements for PSK31?

Tnx

PSK31, Olivia, and other digi modes DEPEND on stable signals on both ends. Old time boat anchors are not generally used on digi modes due to their drift and instability.

Maybe I'm missing something, but could someone explain to me why I need to fight a 20 Hz drift? Seems like you guys are brainstorming a lot of ways to spend excess money when my solution would be to turn the radio on a little earlier.

I remember the days we used to have to chase people with drifting VFOs and now we are worried about 20 Hz.
