To check/set oscillators here, I use the OCXO as external input to lock 
a synth sig gen, then set the output frequency to put it on top of a BBC 
station and time the beat note, I've used both MW and Band 2. It's easy 
to get .01ppm match - but you need to know that the station has a decent 
reference.
