I have this nice Rb standard available, though, and it needs only a few watts.
Centre frequency stability, usually not. Phase noise, definitely.
Those are pretty nice gizmos, it's true. However, generally speaking I'm much more concerned about the phase noise than the exact centre frequency, so a Rb standard is fine for my purposes. I have a bunch of friends in the atomic clock business, but that isn't my gig.
