I've often wondered what the purpose of optional high stability 
reference oscillators in HF rigs is.  A couple hertz between friends on 
CW, SSB, or AM isn't noticeable.  Even PSK can handle slow drift quite 
well.  Is there some other mystery mode or application that requires the 
rubidium oscillator-like stability people seem to spend money on and 
crave? (Folks using transverters on microwave bands??)
