Frequency Lock Time
<100uS
Lock time is from the time the frequency command is sent, or a frequency step in
sweep mode, or input from User Port in List mode to a sable Lock Detector output

Harmonics
The 5009 output waveform is a clipped sine wave. Harmonics are typically 12dBc.
Odd harmonics are most prominent.
Spurious
Non-Harmonic <-60dBc except boundary spurs
